Benjamin Moore

Oriole

2169-30

Oriole by Benjamin Moore is a bold, red-tinged orange with a warm and saturated profile. At a Light Reflectance Value of 28.94, it falls into the medium-dark range, absorbing enough light to feel substantial on a wall while still registering as distinctly bright in hue. It functions well on accent walls, in dining rooms, or in creative workspaces where visual energy is appropriate.

The red undertone gives it more weight than a standard orange. Combining it with Benjamin Moore's Newburyport Blue, Hale Navy, Buttered Yam, White Dove, and Edgecomb Gray provides contrast and grounding against its intensity.
