Benjamin Moore

Damask Gold

CW-405

Damask Gold is a rich golden yellow inspired by 1760s wallpaper fragments, carrying clear yellow undertones that read warm and saturated on the wall. Its LRV of 48.11 places it in the mid-range, reflecting a moderate amount of light. This makes it substantial enough to anchor a room without darkening it significantly.

Benjamin Moore Shaker Beige and Lenox Tan complement its warmth as supporting neutrals, while Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy offer firm contrast. Tate Olive rounds out a palette with an earthy, tonal direction.
