Benjamin Moore

Southwest Pottery

Southwest Pottery sits in the medium-dark range with an LRV of 16.56, reading as a muted terracotta that blends brown, red, and orange undertones in roughly equal measure. On walls it produces a grounded warmth without excessive saturation, and the brown base keeps it from skewing too pink under artificial light. It coordinates well with Lenox Tan, Edgecomb Gray, and Adobe Orange for tonal continuity, while Hale Navy or Wrought Iron can supply sharper contrast in trim or accent applications.
