Benjamin Moore

Monarch Gold

1109

Monarch Gold is a mid-toned warm neutral with soft peach undertones that distinguish it from straightforward beige or tan. With an LRV of 59.72, it reflects a moderate-to-high amount of light and reads as a light warm hue on walls. The peach undertone becomes more visible under warm incandescent lighting and recedes somewhat in cooler daylight.

It coordinates with White Dove for trim and Shaker Beige for tonal layering on adjacent surfaces. Honeywheat and Powell Buff sit in a similar warm range, while Revere Pewter introduces a cooler greige contrast to balance the inherent warmth.
