Benjamin Moore

Warm Sienna

1203 / CC-126

Warm Sienna is a muted red from Benjamin Moore with earthy orange and brown undertones that temper its intensity and produce a subdued, complex tone. At a Light Reflectance Value of 16.81, it falls in the darker range, absorbing a substantial amount of light and creating a grounded effect on interior surfaces. The orange-brown influence keeps the red from appearing bright or aggressive, instead reading as weathered and layered.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore's White Dove and Revere Pewter for balanced contrast, while Appalachian Brown and Autumn Cover provide analogous depth and continuity.
