Benjamin Moore

Cherry Malt

2104-50

Cherry Malt is a muted rosy pink with smoky gray undertones and a mid LRV of 37.85. It reads softened and works well in bedrooms, sitting rooms, or dining spaces. Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Balboa Mist for a light neutral base.

First Light or Pashmina keep the palette warm and quiet, while Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy add depth.
