Benjamin Moore

Antique Yellow

OC-103 / 921

Antique Yellow is a warm off-white with noticeable cream undertones that shift it away from a stark neutral. At an LRV of 81.36 it reflects a high amount of light and reads consistently bright across different lighting conditions. The cream base can lean slightly yellow in south-facing rooms and will appear more neutral under cooler north light.

It works well alongside White Down for trim contrast, Natural Cream on adjacent walls, and Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal as deeper accent tones. This shade is commonly used in full-room applications where subdued warmth is needed without strong color presence.
