Benjamin Moore

Wickham Gray

HC-171 / 864

Wickham Gray (Benjamin Moore) is a light-toned blue-gray with detectable green undertones that pull it toward a cool, muted character. Its LRV of 67.87 places it in the upper-mid reflectance range, allowing it to brighten rooms while retaining enough chromatic presence to read as a color rather than a white. The hex value #D4D8D2 confirms a near-equal balance of blue and green within a gray base.

Effective same-brand pairings include Chantilly Lace, White Dove, Hale Navy, Kendall Charcoal, and Palladian Blue for tonal coordination or contrast.
