Benjamin Moore

Mediterranean Teal

2123-10

Mediterranean Teal is a dark teal with smoky gray undertones that reduce its saturation and give it a muted, almost mineral-like appearance. With an LRV of 10.56, it absorbs most light, reading as a deep, weighty color in any application. The gray component is what separates it from brighter, cleaner teals, pulling the hue into a more subdued register.

Both blue and green are present in roughly equal measure. It coordinates with Benjamin Moore Distant Gray (2124-70) and Bunny Gray (2124-50) for lighter tonal balance, Swiss Coffee (OC-45) for contrast, and Natural Cream (OC-14) for warmth.
