Benjamin Moore

Baked Pretzel

1126 / HC-74

Baked Pretzel is a warm brown with a light orange undertone that keeps it from reading flat. The LRV of 17.88 indicates low reflectance, so it looks dark and dense on walls. Warm light makes the orange note more apparent.

It is suitable for dining rooms, libraries, or accent walls where a deeper brown is needed. Pair it with Golden Straw and Tawny Bisque for warm support, and add Newburg Green or White Dove for contrast.
