Benjamin Moore

White Christmas

872 / OC-63

White Christmas (OC-131) from Benjamin Moore is a cool white defined by clean blue undertones, with an LRV of 82.2. The blue cast becomes more apparent alongside warm materials and under warm-temperature lighting. It coordinates with Silver Satin and Decorator's White for consistent cool-white layering, Hale Navy and Black Pepper for bold value shifts, and Whispering Spring for analogous cool-tone continuity.

It is best suited for contemporary or minimalist applications where a crisp, blue-leaning white is specified for walls, trim, or ceilings.
