Benjamin Moore

Stunning

826 / CC-870

Stunning is a deep blue with a clear violet undertone that adds complexity without shifting purple. With an LRV of 8.37, it absorbs most light and reads very dark on walls. It is best used for accent walls, cabinetry, or smaller rooms where controlled depth is intentional.

The color remains cool and saturated. Stunning pairs cleanly with Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace and Simply White for contrast, while Admiral Blue and French Violet reinforce its undertone. Warm wood tones help offset its depth.

Stunning 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.
