Benjamin Moore

English Manor

2103-20

English Manor is a dark brown with strong mahogany and red undertones, registering an LRV of 8.35. At this low reflectance value, it absorbs the majority of light and reads as a deep, warm brown suitable for accent walls, trim, or cabinetry. It performs well in libraries, dining rooms, and studies where a dark, warm tone is appropriate.

The mahogany undertone separates it from neutral or cool-leaning browns. For coordinated schemes, pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove, Linen White, Hale Navy, or Hunter Green to provide necessary contrast.
