Benjamin Moore

Butterfly Wings

Butterfly Wings is a vivid orange with warm undertones. With an LRV of 47.59, it reads as a mid-tone and stays saturated. It works best on accent walls, creative spaces, or kitchens that can handle a strong hue.

Combine it with Benjamin Moore Simply White or Chantilly Lace for clean contrast. Hale Navy or Essex Green provide deeper balancing colors. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.
