Benjamin Moore

Crushed Velvet

2076-10

Crushed Velvet is a deep cranberry red with warm undertones and strong visual depth. It has an LRV of 8.98, meaning it absorbs most ambient light and reads as a rich, saturated tone in any room. The hue leans slightly toward plum without fully shifting away from red.

It works well alongside Benjamin Moore's White Dove or Chantilly Lace for sharp contrast, while Autumn Red and Exotic Red sit in a closer tonal range. Muted gold accents can reinforce its warmth.
