Benjamin Moore

Gray Horse

2140-50

Gray Horse is a medium gray with sage green undertones that give it a slightly earthy quality. With an LRV of 48.54, it sits in the mid-range for light reflectance and adapts reasonably well to various lighting conditions. The sage influence is subtle but distinguishes it from cooler grays.

This color functions in living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices. It coordinates with Benjamin Moore White Dove for clean contrast, Hale Navy for depth, Kendall Charcoal for darker accents, and Guilford Green or Saybrook Sage to emphasize its green undertones.
