Benjamin Moore

Topaz

Topaz (BM) is a deep orange with strong brown undertones that ground its warmth and pull it toward a burnt sienna range. Its LRV of 22.37 places it on the darker end of the mid-tone spectrum, meaning it absorbs a significant share of ambient light. The brown influence keeps this color from reading as a bright or citrus-forward orange and instead gives it an earthy, muted warmth.

Coordinating options from Benjamin Moore include Hale Navy, Backwoods, Weston Flax, and Shaker Beige, which provide both contrasting and analogous pairings.

Topaz in Different Light
