Benjamin Moore

Aventurine

AF-445

Aventurine is a mid-tone green with noticeable yellow undertones that shift its character toward an earthy, olive-influenced range. With an LRV of 31.55, it reflects a moderate amount of light and reads as a grounded, natural green on walls without appearing too dark or too muted. The yellow base becomes more pronounced under warm artificial lighting.

White Dove and Simply White both work as clean trim colors that maintain contrast without competing with the green. Saybrook Sage offers a tonal neighbor for adjacent surfaces, while Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal supply strong darker accents for cabinetry or built-in elements.

Aventurine in Different Light
