Benjamin Moore

Saddle Brown

2164-10

Saddle Brown is a deep orange-brown with strong leather-like warmth and an LRV of 10.51, reflecting very little light and producing a dense, grounded appearance on walls. The orange undertone is persistent and will assert itself against cooler adjacent colors. Its low reflectance means it works best on feature walls or in well-lit rooms to avoid excessive visual weight.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove to offset its darkness, Muslin for a warm lighter companion, Hale Navy for temperature contrast, Guilford Green for a muted complementary tone, and Amherst Gray to bridge cool and warm elements.
