Benjamin Moore

Sedona Clay

2174-30

Sedona Clay is a tawny red-brown with pronounced orange and brown undertones, registering an LRV of 18.08 that keeps it in the darker portion of the mid-range. It reads as distinctly warm and earthy, with the red component becoming more prominent under incandescent light. It pairs effectively with White Dove and Calm as lighter counterparts to manage visual weight.

Essex Green introduces a deep complementary contrast, and Hale Navy provides a cool anchor that highlights the warmth of its orange-red base.
