Benjamin Moore

Glowing Umber

182

Glowing Umber is a golden yellow with brown undertones that create a grounded, warm appearance. With an LRV of 37.15, this shade provides moderate light reflection suitable for living rooms, dining areas, and kitchens. The brown influence tempers the yellow base, resulting in a muted warmth rather than brightness.

This color coordinates well with Benjamin Moore's White Sand, Powell Buff, and Chestertown Buff for tonal harmony, while Newburyport Blue or Hale Navy offer contrast that emphasizes the golden character of this hue.
