Benjamin Moore

Dellwood Sand

1019 / CC-364, TH-280

Dellwood Sand is a mid-tone neutral that sits between brown and gray, carrying warm sandy undertones with a slight taupe cast. It has an LRV of 36.05, placing it in the medium-depth range with moderate light absorption. The brown-gray balance makes it function as a grounding neutral without pulling strongly in either direction.

Recommended Benjamin Moore pairings include Chantilly Lace, Revere Pewter, Hale Navy, Hunter Green, and Palladian Blue. A crisp white like Chantilly Lace on trim will sharpen its warm, muted character.

Dellwood Sand 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.
