Benjamin Moore

Wisteria

AF-585

Wisteria (BM) is a medium-depth violet-gray with cool blue-violet undertones, registering an LRV of 34.8 and a hex value of #9C9CA6. The moderate LRV places it in the mid-tone range, absorbing more light than it reflects. Its gray component significantly desaturates the violet base, yielding an appearance closer to a tinted neutral.

Benjamin Moore pairings include White Dove, Gray Owl, Chelsea Gray, Breath of Fresh Air, and Saybrook Sage. The balanced gray-violet composition allows it to serve as either an accent or a subdued wall color.
