Benjamin Moore

Dill Pickle

2147-40

Dill Pickle is a medium-saturation yellow-green with a muted cast that tempers its chromatic intensity. It records an LRV of 50.02, placing it at the midpoint of the reflectance scale where it neither brightens nor darkens a room significantly. The yellow-green base reads as earthy and subdued rather than vivid.

For coordinated Benjamin Moore pairings, Gray Owl or Charcoal Slate provide cool-toned contrast, Lenox Tan offers a warm neutral complement, and Fernwood Green or Rosemary Green extend the yellow-green family in lighter and darker directions respectively.
