Benjamin Moore

Santa Fe Pottery

1287

Santa Fe Pottery is an earthen red with muted brown undertones that ground its warmth and reduce the visual intensity typical of brighter reds. At an LRV of 18.16, it sits on the darker end of the spectrum and will deepen considerably in low-light rooms. Under warm incandescent lighting, the brown undertone becomes more prominent, while daylight reveals more of its red character.

It pairs well with lighter neutrals like Balboa Mist and Pale Almond to prevent a space from feeling too enclosed. Smokey Taupe works as a coordinating wall tone, while Midnight Blue offers strong contrast.
