Benjamin Moore

Tea Room

AF-270

Tea Room (AF-270) is a muted, gray-influenced red from Benjamin Moore rooted in Victorian-era color sensibilities. With an LRV of 20.24, it reflects a limited amount of light and reads as a dusty, mid-dark red with a visible gray cast that prevents it from appearing bright or saturated. The gray undertone gives it a cooled-down quality compared to cleaner reds in the same line.

It coordinates with Kendall Charcoal, White Dove, Guilford Green, Hawthorne Yellow, and Hale Navy, where both warm and cool neutrals complement its subdued red-gray balance.
