Benjamin Moore

Labrador Blue

1670 / CC-740

Labrador Blue reads as a muted, mid-value denim blue with an LRV of 33.1, placing it in the moderate range where it holds presence without dominating a room. Cool blue-gray undertones give it a washed, slightly dusty quality that prevents it from reading too saturated on the wall. It pairs naturally with Silver Mist or Gray Owl for a restrained, tonal composition.

White Dove lifts it effectively in trim applications, while Hale Navy and Bennington Gray offer layered contrast in deeper accent roles.

Labrador Blue 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.
