Benjamin Moore

Geddy Verdigris

CW-550

Geddy Verdigris is a muted teal-green with cool blue-green undertones, derived from historical verdigris pigment. With an LRV of 22.1, this mid-tone shade absorbs a fair amount of light, lending depth to the walls it covers. The color works well in studies, dining rooms, or powder rooms where a rich, saturated green is appropriate.

For coordinating colors, consider Benjamin Moore White Dove for ceiling and trim, Seapearl as a lighter complementary neutral, Hale Navy for a deeper contrast, and Kendall Charcoal as an accent tone.
