Benjamin Moore

Gentleman's Gray

2062-20

Gentleman's Gray is a blackened teal blue with complex cool undertones that lean toward green and blue. With an LRV of 7.26, this deep shade absorbs most light, creating a contained atmosphere appropriate for libraries, dining rooms, or accent walls. The color works well with Benjamin Moore's White Dove or Chantilly Lace for strong light-dark contrast.

Hale Navy offers a tonal pairing within the blue family, while Kendall Charcoal provides depth without competing. Natural wood finishes and metallic accents complement this shade effectively.
