Benjamin Moore

Pear Green

2028-40

Benjamin Moore Pear Green is a lightly muted yellow-green with an LRV of 57.36, reflecting a good amount of light while maintaining color saturation. Its undertones lean yellow, giving it an organic quality that avoids the sharpness of pure greens. The color is functional in kitchens, living rooms, and sunlit spaces where a fresh, natural wall tone is practical.

Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace serves as a clean white trim pairing, while Spring Mint and Weston Flax offer analogous coordination. Hale Navy provides grounded contrast that emphasizes the green's brightness without competing with its yellow base.
