Benjamin Moore

Beaver Brown

2104-20

Beaver Brown is a deep red-brown with warm undertones that keep it grounded. Its LRV of 9.05 indicates very low reflectance, so it reads dark on walls. Warm light brings the red note forward.

It is suitable for studies, dining rooms, or accent walls where a deep brown is needed. Pair it with White Dove and Navajo White for light balance, and add Hale Navy or Spanish Red for contrast.
