Benjamin Moore

Mushroom Cap

177

Mushroom Cap is a light yellow with warm golden and buff undertones that give it a creamy, wheat-toned quality rather than a bright citrus character. With an LRV of 73.13, it reflects a significant amount of light, placing it in the high-reflectance range suitable for smaller or darker rooms. The warm base keeps it from appearing cool under artificial lighting.

Benjamin Moore recommends pairing it with Powder Sand OC-113, Plymouth Rock 1543, Simply White OC-117, and Vintage Charm 1455, all of which complement its soft golden foundation.
