Benjamin Moore

Mineral Springs

CC-848 / 794

Benjamin Moore Mineral Springs (CC-848) is a light, powdery blue with an LRV of 61.66, positioning it in the upper-middle reflectance range. Its undertones lean slightly toward green, which keeps it from appearing overly icy, and a gray component softens the overall saturation. The result is a blue that holds color without dominating a room.

It works well with the crispness of White Dove (OC-17), the grounded depth of Hale Navy (HC-154), the warm mid-tone of Revere Pewter (HC-172), and the complementary softness of Palladian Blue (HC-144).
