Benjamin Moore

Golden Honey

297 / CC-214

Golden Honey is a warm yellow with gold undertones and an LRV of 72.82, which allows it to reflect substantial light while maintaining depth. The color works well in kitchens, living rooms, and dining areas where natural light is present. It coordinates effectively with Benjamin Moore White Dove for trim work, Hale Navy for contrast on accent walls or cabinetry, Guilford Green for an earthy pairing, Kendall Charcoal for grounding darker elements, and Simply White for a clean ceiling finish.
