Benjamin Moore

Harlequin Blue

830 / CC-936

Harlequin Blue is a grayish blue with purple undertones that give it a cool, slightly complex character. With an LRV of 38.31, this mid-tone shade provides moderate light absorption, creating visible depth without appearing heavy. The purple undertone distinguishes it from standard gray-blues and may appear more prominent in certain lighting conditions.

This color works in living rooms, bedrooms, or home offices where a cool, muted atmosphere is appropriate. Benjamin Moore Balboa Mist and Classic Gray complement its cool base, while Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal add depth. Silver Marlin serves as an analogous option.
