Benjamin Moore

Oyster

2115-70

Oyster by Benjamin Moore is a light neutral that blends soft violet and gray undertones into a muted, low-saturation finish. With a light reflectance value of 80.4, it reflects substantial light and reads as an airy, near-white tone with a faint purple cast that distinguishes it from standard warm grays. The violet component becomes most visible in north-facing rooms or under cooler daylight.

It works well in bedrooms, living areas, and offices where a quiet background with subtle chromatic interest is needed. Oyster coordinates with Benjamin Moore's Classic Gray, Balboa Mist, Chelsea Gray, Kendall Charcoal, and Mauve Mist.
