Benjamin Moore

White Marigold

2149-60

White Marigold (2149-60) by Benjamin Moore is a warm off-white distinguished by underlying yellow and gray undertones. It records an LRV of 77.4, providing substantial light reflectance while reading noticeably warmer than standard whites. The yellow cast is restrained, modulated by the gray component, which prevents it from appearing overtly golden.

Compatible Benjamin Moore pairings include White Dove, Pale Oak, Chelsea Gray, Windham Cream, and Golden Straw, enabling layered neutral arrangements or deeper contrast when set against charcoal and navy selections.
