Benjamin Moore

Iron Ore Red

2089-10

Iron Ore Red is a deep red grounded by clear orange undertones, giving it a dense, earthy appearance. An LRV of 16.24 places it firmly in the low-reflectance range, where it absorbs light and reads as saturated and weighty. It is commonly used on accent walls, dining rooms, or enclosed spaces where darker colors are appropriate.

The undertone structure keeps the color from shifting toward purple or brown under warm lighting. Iron Ore Red pairs cleanly with Benjamin Moore whites such as White Dove and Simply White, while related tones like Autumn Cover and Rustic Brick support a cohesive, warm palette.
