Benjamin Moore

Coral Bronze

1298

Coral Bronze is a mid-tone red with a pronounced orange undertone that gives it a warm, terra-cotta-adjacent quality. Its LRV of 26.08 means it absorbs more light than it reflects, producing a relatively saturated appearance on walls. It functions well as a dining room color or on accent walls where a warm focal point is needed.

Pairing it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Revere Pewter provides a neutral base that lets the red-orange character come through clearly. Kendall Charcoal offers strong tonal contrast, while Manchester Tan and Saybrook Sage each temper its warmth in different directions.

Coral Bronze 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.
