Benjamin Moore

Charcoal Linen

2133-40

Charcoal Linen is a dark gray with a slight indigo undertone and a cool temperature. Its LRV of 21.95 places it in the mid-dark range, so it reads substantial on large surfaces. It suits living rooms, studies, or dining areas where a deep gray is appropriate.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Classic Gray or Gray Owl for a lighter range. Blue Ice or Silver Marlin soften the transition, while Hale Navy or Salamander add depth.
