Wood Ash

1065

Wood Ash (BM) is a light warm neutral with yellow undertones, registering an LRV of 76.62 and hex #EEE4D0. The high LRV indicates strong light reflectance, and the hex breakdown shows a warm bias with the red and green channels dominating over blue, confirming the yellow-beige cast. It pairs within Benjamin Moore's line with Swiss Coffee, White Dove, Kendall Charcoal, Hale Navy, and Palladian Blue.

The warm undertone keeps it from reading as a stark white, positioning it as a cream-adjacent neutral for broad surface coverage.
