Benjamin Moore

Black Beauty

2128-10

Black Beauty is a warm black with subtle brown undertones. An LRV of 5.32 keeps it near-black in most light. It works on trim, doors, or accent walls where a soft black is required.

Chantilly Lace and Swiss Coffee maintain clean contrast, while Kendall Charcoal and Iron Mountain build a layered dark palette. Dark Olive can add a muted green counterpoint.
