Benjamin Moore

Pancake Syrup

2104-10

Pancake Syrup is a deep, burgundy-tinged brown from Benjamin Moore with an LRV of 8.37, making it a low-reflectance color that absorbs significant light. Its red-brown undertone gives it a warm, dense appearance suited to rooms where enclosure and depth are desired, such as dens, studies, or dining rooms. Pairing it with lighter values like White Dove or Ballet White provides necessary contrast, while Lenox Tan and Manchester Tan offer mid-tone transitions.

For color contrast, Hale Navy or Guacamole can introduce a complementary shift without competing with its warmth.
