Benjamin Moore

Silver Spring

2120-50

Silver Spring is a medium-depth cool gray with blue undertones, and its LRV of 39.32 places it on the darker side of mid-tone grays. It absorbs more light than lighter silvers, lending noticeable weight and definition to walls. The blue undertone stays controlled and does not push into overtly blue territory.

Under warm incandescent light it softens toward a more balanced gray. It coordinates with Benjamin Moore Gray Owl for a lighter ceiling option, Classic Gray as a pale trim companion, Kendall Charcoal for a deeper accent, Hale Navy for a dark pairing, and Palladian Blue for a cool accent.
