Benjamin Moore

Polished Slate

713 / CC-754

Polished Slate from Benjamin Moore is a deep blue carrying distinct gray-green undertones, with an LRV of 14.91 that places it in the low-reflectance range. This color absorbs substantial light and reads as a complex, muted teal-blue in most lighting conditions. It works well in living rooms, bedrooms, and study areas where depth and visual weight are needed on walls.

Effective pairings include Sea Pine for an analogous green accent, Smoke for tonal harmony, White Dove for high-contrast trim, Edgecomb Gray on adjacent walls, and Kendall Charcoal for a layered dark scheme.
