Benjamin Moore

Devonshire Green

1489 / HC-100

Devonshire Green is a deep, dark-toned neutral with black and gray undertones that shift its appearance toward a muted, mossy character. It has an LRV of 19.25, meaning it absorbs a significant amount of light and reads as a low-reflectance color suited to accent walls or trim. The gray-black base keeps it from reading as overtly green, placing it firmly in neutral territory.

For same-brand coordination, consider pairing it with White Dove or Classic Gray for contrast, Kendall Charcoal for tonal depth, or Guilford Green and Saybrook Sage to reinforce its green lean.
