Benjamin Moore

Coral Dust

2173-50

Coral Dust is a muted medium pink with soft warm undertones that lean slightly toward peach. It registers an LRV of 53.01, placing it in the mid-range for light reflectance and allowing it to read clearly without dominating a room. The warmth in this shade makes it a reasonable option for bedrooms, nurseries, or living rooms where a gentle color presence is preferred.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore's White Opulence and Soft Chamois for a quiet tonal palette, while Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal provide grounding contrast. Buttered Yam extends the same soft warmth across a broader scheme.
