Benjamin Moore

Sea Green

CW-515

Sea Green is a medium-toned green from the Williamsburg collection, carrying cool undertones rooted in its verdigris pigment base. Its LRV of 42.27 places it in the mid-range, offering moderate reflectance that works in rooms with adequate natural light. The color leans slightly toward sage without becoming yellow-green, maintaining a distinctly cool orientation.

It coordinates with Quiet Moments and Palladian Blue for an analogous cool grouping, while White Dove or Simply White serve as effective trim choices. Newburyport Blue adds contrast and depth when used as an accent alongside it.
