Benjamin Moore

Fire Dance

2171-20

Fire Dance is a bold orange-red from Benjamin Moore with strong warm undertones driven by its orange base. It has an LRV of 17.7, placing it in the darker range with limited light reflectance, which gives it a dense, saturated appearance on walls. The hue is dominated by red with a clear orange shift, making it read as a warm, high-chroma accent color.

It is best applied to feature walls or smaller surfaces to avoid overpowering a room. Pair it with Benjamin Moore Hale Navy or Deep Caviar for contrast, or with Golden Honey and Simply White for a balanced warm scheme.
