Benjamin Moore

Silver Streak

2119-40

Silver Streak is a dark gray with a discernible violet undertone that adds chromatic depth beyond a simple neutral. At an LRV of 20.72, it absorbs considerable light and reads as a strong dark tone on walls, best suited to accent surfaces or well-lit rooms. The violet cast differentiates it from green-leaning or blue-leaning dark grays and becomes most visible under cool daylight.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace for high-contrast trim, Silver Half Dollar for a lighter companion, Hale Navy for a deep analogous pairing, Nimbus Gray as a mid-tone bridge, and Sea Foam for a cool accent.

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.
