Benjamin Moore

Ivory Lustre

184

Ivory Lustre is a muted creamy yellow that sits just beyond the neutral range, carrying enough yellow undertone to register as warm without reading as a true yellow. With an LRV of 76.71, it reflects a substantial amount of light while maintaining a perceptible tint that plain whites lack. The yellow base becomes more pronounced under warm artificial light and recedes in cooler daylight.

It coordinates naturally with Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Soft Chamois, Hale Navy, Weston Flax, and Mannequin Cream.

Ivory Lustre in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
