Benjamin Moore

Metallic Gold

2163-40

Metallic Gold is a warm mid-tone from Benjamin Moore with an LRV of 35.31, placing it in the medium range where it absorbs a fair amount of light. The color exhibits sandy beige, clay, and copper undertones, giving it a muted, earthy warmth that avoids overt orange. It reads as a dusty caramel in daylight and deepens toward brown under low light.

This shade pairs well with Alexandria Beige HC-77 for tonal harmony, Simply White OC-117 for bright trim contrast, Revere Pewter HC-172 as a lighter wall option, Hale Navy HC-154 for a grounded accent, and Pale Oak OC-20 for a neutral bridge.
