What color is Behr Ancient Scroll?
Behr Ancient Scroll MQ3-44 is a light, muted beige with a clear warm golden-tan cast. Its #e1cdad color value gives it a soft, sandy appearance rather than a crisp cream or cool gray-beige. In bright daylight, Ancient Scroll can read as a pale buff neutral, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its honeyed undertone. It suits living room, bedroom, and hallway walls where a gentle warm backdrop is wanted without using a deep tan. Pair it with off-white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, and earthy accents in clay, olive, or softened brown.

LRV of Ancient Scroll
Ancient Scroll has an LRV of 62.52% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 62.52%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
