Benjamin Moore

Baked Clay

Baked Clay is a warm red with balanced orange and brown undertones that keep it earthy. Its LRV of 15.06 indicates low reflectance, so it reads deep on walls. Warm light increases the orange-brown note.

It is suitable for dining rooms, accent walls, or entryways where a saturated red is needed. Pair it with Creamy White and Pale Oak for lighter balance, and add Hale Navy or Peale Green for contrast.

Baked Clay in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
