Benjamin Moore

Moccasin

1059 / CC-430

Moccasin is a mid-toned beige with golden undertones that lend it a warm, wheat-like cast. With an LRV of 61.61, it reflects a substantial amount of light while maintaining enough depth to read as a true neutral rather than a near-white. The golden base prevents this shade from skewing pink or gray, keeping it firmly in warm territory.

It pairs well with White Dove for trim contrast, and sits comfortably alongside Shaker Beige, Lenox Tan, and Revere Pewter in coordinated neutral schemes. Edgecomb Gray offers a cooler counterpoint on adjacent walls.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
