Benjamin Moore

Lion Yellow

2158-60

Lion Yellow is a light peach-tinted yellow with a crisp, clean quality. Its undertones lean slightly toward apricot rather than pure gold, giving it a warmer pink-adjacent cast under certain lighting. At an LRV of 80.31, it reflects a high amount of light and reads as nearly a tinted white in bright rooms.

Suntan Yellow and Apricot Beige extend its warm base naturally. Mt. Rainier Gray or Newburg Green provide cool contrast. White Dove and Simply White work as trim colors that maintain the overall light, warm palette.
