Benjamin Moore

Toasted Chestnut

2174-10

Toasted Chestnut (Benjamin Moore) is a reddish-brown with strong red-orange undertones and an LRV of 10.45, placing it in the deeply saturated range. The color reads closer to fired brick than to neutral brown, owing to its dominant red content. It pairs with White Dove or Swiss Coffee as lighter neutrals to offset its depth, Hale Navy and Chelsea Gray for cooler contrast, and Caliente or Autumn Cover as analogous warm companions that reinforce its reddish direction without competing for attention.
