Benjamin Moore

River Gorge Gray

1537

River Gorge Gray is a warm mid-tone neutral with green and brown undertones, registering an LRV of 32.84. It sits in the medium-dark range, absorbing enough light to feel grounded while still maintaining definition in well-lit rooms. The green-brown cast gives it an organic, soil-like quality that shifts subtly depending on surrounding colors and light temperature.

Within Benjamin Moore's palette, it works well with White Dove for clean contrast, Revere Pewter for a close neutral transition, Hale Navy for a deep complementary anchor, Hunter Green for analogous depth, and Edgecomb Gray for a lighter tonal step.
