Benjamin Moore

Pearl River

871

Pearl River by Benjamin Moore is a cool-toned gray with a noticeable blue shift, registering an LRV of 73.11, which places it in the higher range of light reflectance. The blue undertones give it a crisp, slightly atmospheric quality that reads differently under warm and cool lighting conditions. It works well on walls in bedrooms, living rooms, and open-plan spaces where consistent light reflection is needed.

For coordinated schemes, Gray Owl and Wickham Gray maintain a similar tonal range, while Hale Navy or Black Beauty provide deeper contrast, and Palladian Blue offers a lighter analogous accent.
