Benjamin Moore

Raccoon Fur

2126-20

Raccoon Fur by Benjamin Moore is a near-black shade carrying a subtle blue undertone that prevents it from reading as a flat, true black. It has an LRV of 8.28, meaning it reflects very little light and reads as a dark, saturated tone on walls. This makes it functional for accent walls, trim, or cabinetry in spaces where strong contrast is required.

It works well alongside Benjamin Moore Hale Navy to reinforce a cool-toned scheme, Coventry Gray for a softer transition, Revere Pewter for warm balance, and Simply White for sharp, clean contrast on adjacent surfaces.

Raccoon Fur in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
