Benjamin Moore

Orange Sherbet

122

Orange Sherbet by Benjamin Moore is a light, high-reflectance orange with subtle yellow undertones and an LRV of 66.29. The yellow shift gives it a sunny cast that reads as warm without heavy saturation, making it practical for kitchens, dining areas, and children's rooms where brightness and warmth are both needed. It avoids the heaviness typical of deeper oranges.

White Dove and Soft Chamois pair naturally for a tonal warm palette, while Hale Navy and Aegean Teal supply cooler contrast. First Light and Windham Cream extend its soft, warm character across adjacent walls.

Orange Sherbet 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.
