Benjamin Moore

Navajo Red

2171-10

Navajo Red is an earthy red-orange with strong brown and burnt sienna undertones, placing it firmly in the brick and clay color range. With an LRV of 13.39, it absorbs a significant amount of light and reads as a deep, grounded tone in most settings. The color leans warm without veering into bright or fiery territory, held in check by its brown base.

It coordinates well with the muted gold of Westminster Gold 200, the soft neutral Porter Ranch Cream 148, the warm off-white Coronado Cream 219, and the lighter Creme Brulee 2022-70 for contrast.
