Benjamin Moore

Wishing Well

1389

Wishing Well (BM) is a light purple with lavender undertones, carrying a hex value of #CBB7D0 and an LRV of 51.35. The lavender base gives it a cool-to-neutral temperature, distinguishing it from warmer mauves. At mid-range reflectance, it provides enough depth to register as a definitive color statement rather than a tinted white.

Benjamin Moore pairings include Lavender Mist, Purple Haze, Hale Navy, Simply White, and Chantilly Lace. Its moderate saturation level allows it to function as a primary wall color without overwhelming adjacent neutral or cool-toned elements.

Wishing Well in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
