Benjamin Moore

Persimmon

2088-40

Persimmon by Benjamin Moore blends rose and terra-cotta tones into a warm, moderately deep hue with earthy red-orange undertones. At an LRV of 23.98, it absorbs substantial light, making it best applied in living rooms, dining areas, or as an accent wall where its warmth can concentrate without overwhelming a room. The terra-cotta influence grounds the rose component, preventing it from reading overly pink.

Benjamin Moore's Coral Spice and Peach Parfait pair as lighter analogous neighbors, Hale Navy provides strong cool contrast, and White Dove or Cloud White offer clean trim options to frame the color.
