Benjamin Moore

Fireball Orange

2170-10

Fireball Orange is a saturated orange-red with a strong red base and minimal brown content. An LRV of 18.89 places it firmly in the low-reflectance range, where it reads dense and bold. The color maintains clarity without drifting into rust or terracotta.

It is typically reserved for accent use or limited surfaces. Cooler counterparts such as Benjamin Moore Hale Navy or Arctic Gray reduce visual intensity. Related warm tones like Tangerine Melt or Golden Honey keep the palette within the same temperature range, while Simply White or Classic Gray provide neutral relief.
