Black Bean Soup

2130-10

Black Bean Soup is a deep black with brown undertones. Its LRV of 6.1 is very low, so it reads dark and heavy on walls. It suits dining rooms, studies, or cabinetry where a warm black is needed.

Pure White and Cedar Key provide light balance, while Texas Leather and French Press keep a tonal brown range. Caliente or Newburg Green can be used for contrast.
