Benjamin Moore

Deep Poinsettia

2091-30

Deep Poinsettia is a muted, earthy red with noticeable brown and russet undertones that keep it subdued rather than bright. It registers an LRV of 13.44, making it a low-reflectance color best used on accent walls or in smaller applications. The brown undertone prevents it from reading as a pure red, giving it year-round usability.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore Muslin, Barley, Kendall Charcoal, White Dove, and Pale Oak. Lighter neutrals from the same brand help offset its depth and prevent visual heaviness.
