Benjamin Moore

Byzantine Gold

1099

Byzantine Gold is a warm golden brown with yellow undertones. With an LRV of 26.25, it reads as a dark mid-tone. It works in dining rooms, libraries, or accent areas where a muted gold is needed.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Sand and Manchester Tan for warm neutrals. Newburg Green or Hale Navy add contrast, and Pale Oak can soften transitions. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.

Byzantine Gold in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
