Glazed Pear

1092

Glazed Pear is a caramelized orange with noticeable brown undertones that add earthiness to its warmth. The LRV of 23.61 indicates a deeper shade that absorbs more light, making it suitable for accent walls or rooms where a grounded atmosphere is desired, such as dining rooms or studies. The brown base prevents it from appearing overly bright.

Compatible colors include Benjamin Moore Golden Straw and Suntan Yellow for warmth, Chelsea Gray and Hale Navy for contrast, and Alexandria Beige for a cohesive neutral pairing.

Glazed Pear in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
