Benjamin Moore

Sand Pebble

2105-50

Sand Pebble carries muted red-pink undertones within a dusty, mid-range body, registering an LRV of 41.51. It sits in a space between taupe and blush, leaning warmer under incandescent lighting and appearing more neutral in daylight. The color absorbs moderate light, giving walls a grounded, subdued presence.

Pairing with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Soft Chamois maintains warmth without contrast, while Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal provides a sharper counterpoint. Wedgewood Gray offers a cooler complementary tone that tempers the underlying pinkness.
