Benjamin Moore

Snow on the Mountain

1513 / OC-29

Snow on the Mountain is a soft white with a light green undertone that keeps it from reading as purely warm or purely cool, landing at an LRV of 80.06. It functions as a near-white that carries just enough pigment to distinguish it from a stark optical white on trim or ceilings. The green cast is most visible when placed next to warmer whites.

It coordinates with Benjamin Moore Simply White, Chantilly Lace, Palladian Blue, Gray Owl, and Hale Navy, where cooler companions draw out its subtle green lean.

Snow on the Mountain 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.
