Benjamin Moore

Champion Cobalt

2061-20

Champion Cobalt is a deep royal blue with cool undertones and a very dark read. An LRV of 7.76 indicates low reflectance and strong saturation. It is suited to accent walls, libraries, or cabinetry where a bold blue is required.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace for crisp contrast. Blue Hydrangea softens the blue range, while Stonington Gray or Calypso Orange provide balance and contrast.
