Grand Canyon Red

2090-10

Grand Canyon Red is an iron oxide red with warm, earthy undertones characteristic of natural mineral pigments. With an LRV of 11.48, it reflects minimal light and creates visual depth, making it suitable for accent walls, dining areas, or studies. It coordinates effectively with Benjamin Moore Shaker Beige for warm contrast, White Dove for a clean neutral pairing, Hale Navy for deep complementary tones, and Gray Owl for a cooler neutral balance.
