Benjamin Moore

Silver Crest

1583

Silver Crest is a light blue with gray and green undertones that give it a muted, sage-like quality in certain lighting. Its LRV of 70.25 places it firmly in the light range, allowing it to reflect ambient light while retaining enough color to read distinctly from a plain white. Under warm light, the green undertone becomes more apparent.

It pairs well with Gray Owl, Wickham Gray, Classic Gray, White Dove, and Palladian Blue, all of which complement its cool, low-saturation profile without introducing visual conflict.

Silver Crest in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
