Benjamin Moore

Spring Purple

2070-40

Spring Purple is a deep lilac with a noticeable blue undertone that steers it away from red-violet territory. At an LRV of 25.65, it absorbs a significant amount of light and reads as a decisively mid-dark tone, requiring adequate lighting to avoid appearing flat. The blue shift becomes more prominent under cool fluorescent light, while warmer sources bring out its red-purple base.

Silver Satin and Iced Mauve work as lighter tonal partners, while Chantilly Lace provides maximum trim contrast. Deeper pairings with Hale Navy or Black Beauty create a rich, low-LRV palette.
