Benjamin Moore

King's Red

CW-335

King's Red is a deep, pigment-dense red rooted in the vermillion tradition and part of the Benjamin Moore Williamsburg Paint Color Collection. At an LRV of 14.19, it absorbs most light and reads as a strong, assertive color that will visually advance in any room. Its undertones lean warm with slight orange influence, keeping it from shifting toward berry or burgundy.

Simply White provides high-contrast trim pairing, while Audubon Russet and Newburg Green offer historically grounded companion colors. Edgecomb Gray on adjacent surfaces helps moderate its visual weight.
