Ruddy umber defines Old Canal 1132, with a restrained orange undertone adding warmth. It sits naturally beside aged leather or warm wood. Benjamin Moore does not recommend the shade as exterior paint, so keep it to interior walls and details.

Old Canal in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

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.
