Benjamin Moore

Tudor Brown

HC-185 / PM-24

Tudor Brown is a deep brown from Benjamin Moore with red undertones and an LRV of 6.43, placing it among the darkest colors in the palette. The red base distinguishes it from cooler or more neutral browns, giving it a warm, saturated appearance. At this low reflectance, it absorbs nearly all light and reads as a strong, concentrated color on surfaces.

It works alongside Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Simply White, Forest Green, Hale Navy, and Rust, offering options for high-contrast neutral pairings or warm analogous groupings.
