Wythe Tan

CW-415

Wythe Tan (HC-12) by Benjamin Moore is a warm, light tan with yellow ochre undertones and a hex value of #DFCE9D. It has an LRV of 61.13, placing it in the upper-mid reflectance range where it reflects a majority of light while maintaining visible warm coloration. The yellow-beige base gives it a distinctly warm lean that becomes more pronounced under warm artificial lighting.

Within the Benjamin Moore line, it pairs well with White Dove, Balboa Mist, Hale Navy, Kendall Charcoal, and Saybrook Sage for both tonal harmony and value contrast.
