Benjamin Moore

Peruvian Chili

CSP-1100

Peruvian Chili is a warm orange-brown with noticeable red undertones that push it toward a spiced terracotta range. Its LRV of 23.13 makes it a mid-deep color that holds saturation in average indoor light. It works best as an accent wall, in dining rooms, kitchens, or entry areas where stronger color is acceptable.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Sand, Tawny Birch, or Alexandria Beige to keep the palette warm and connected. For stronger contrast, Newburyport Blue or Salamander will offset the orange base.
