Benjamin Moore

Eclipse

2132-40

Eclipse is a dark gray from Benjamin Moore with an LRV of 20.01, placing it in the lower-medium reflectance range. It carries a noticeable blue undertone that shifts the gray toward a cooler reading, especially under natural daylight. This shade is appropriate for living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices where a subdued, cool-toned wall color is needed.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore Gray Owl and Stonington Gray to maintain a cool neutral palette. Revere Pewter adds warmth, while Hale Navy reinforces the blue undertone.
