Benjamin Moore

Eternity

AF-695

Eternity is a cool gray that carries noticeable blue undertones, part of Benjamin Moore's Affinity collection. With an LRV of 52.22, it sits at a mid-light level that reads neither too dark nor too washed out under standard lighting. The blue cast becomes more apparent next to pure whites or warm finishes.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore Classic Gray or Nimbus for a neutral layered scheme. Adding Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal supplies depth, and a soft green like Guilford Green draws out its cool character.
