Benjamin Moore

Shaker Gray

1594

Shaker Gray is a mid-tone gray carrying cool blue undertones that are most visible in rooms with abundant natural light. At an LRV of 25.92, it falls on the darker side of the mid-range and will read heavier in north-facing or dimly lit spaces. The blue influence keeps it from feeling flat or muddy and separates it from warmer gray alternatives.

It pairs directly with White Heron as a clean trim color, while Gray Owl provides a lighter wall transition. Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal deepen the palette, and Sea Haze introduces a muted green complement.
