Benjamin Moore

Raleigh Green

CW-525

Raleigh Green is a moderately deep, cool-toned green from Benjamin Moore, historically sourced from pigments found on a late 18th-century house near Williamsburg. With an LRV of 19.37, it absorbs more light than it reflects, giving it a solid presence without becoming overly dark. Its cool undertones make it a functional choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and rooms styled in colonial or traditional schemes.

It pairs naturally with Benjamin Moore Kingsport Gray and Cushing Green for a balanced, period-appropriate palette, while Van Alen Green and Gloucester Sage extend the green range. Hale Navy adds a strong contrasting anchor.
