Benjamin Moore

Fresh Clay

2093-20

Fresh Clay is a deep, earthy shade combining red, orange, and brown undertones that read as warm terracotta. With an LRV of 12.7, this is a dark color best suited for accent walls or rooms where a substantial, grounded feel is desired, such as living rooms or dining spaces. The blend of red and brown keeps the orange from becoming too dominant.

This color pairs with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Navajo White for lightening contrast, Chestertown Buff or Saybrook Sage for analogous warmth, and Dark Chocolate or Hale Navy for deeper tonal combinations.
