Benjamin Moore

Baby Seal Black

2119-30

Baby Seal Black is a cool charcoal black with a subtle violet undertone. Its LRV of 8.74 indicates very low reflectance, so it reads nearly black on walls. Under cool daylight the violet note becomes more apparent.

It works well on doors, cabinetry, or accent walls where a dark neutral is required. Pair it with Chantilly Lace and Silver Half Dollar for crisp contrast, and add Balboa Mist or Hale Navy for coordinated depth.
