Benjamin Moore

Mayo Teal

CW-570

Mayo Teal (CW-570) is a deep, muted teal from Benjamin Moore's Williamsburg Collection with an LRV of 23.22. Its color origin traces to a reclaimed baluster from a demolished late 18th or early 19th century house near the Capitol in Williamsburg. The hue carries balanced blue and green undertones in nearly equal measure, with a gray cast that softens its saturation.

It pairs within the Williamsburg line with Capitol White (CW-10) and Prentis Cream (CW-100) for period-appropriate neutrals, and also coordinates with White Heron (OC-57) and Wedgewood Gray (HC-146).
