Benjamin Moore

Luck of the Irish

588

Luck of the Irish is a mid-tone green with an LRV of 23.92, giving it moderate depth without excessive darkness. The hue balances between a true green and a slightly blue-shifted base, with cool undertones that prevent it from reading overly warm or yellow. It maintains good color clarity across lighting conditions.

Simply White OC-117 and Pale Oak OC-20 pair naturally as lighter companions, while Hale Navy HC-154 and Kendall Charcoal HC-166 supply grounding contrast. Wythe Blue HC-143 shares its restrained, slightly blue-green sensibility.
