Benjamin Moore

Toasted Mauve

1279

Toasted Mauve (Benjamin Moore) is a muted pink-brown with rosy undertones, registering an LRV of 31.94, which places it in the mid-range for light reflectance. The pink content is restrained enough that the color reads as a dusty rose rather than a clear pink, leaning slightly warm. It coordinates with Smoky Ash for a tonal neutral pairing, Creamy White for lighter contrast, Hale Navy or Charcoal Slate for darker counterpoints, and Pink Damask or Mauve Mist as analogous companions that echo its soft pink base.
