What color is Benjamin Moore Angel's Wings?
Benjamin Moore Angel's Wings 1423 is a light, muted blue-gray with a faint lavender cast that keeps it from reading too icy. Its soft, low-saturation appearance gives walls a quiet wash of cool color without making a room feel dark. In bright daylight, Angel's Wings can look cleaner and slightly bluer, while lower or warmer lighting tends to bring out its gentle gray-violet side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and home offices, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents. Pair it with warm off-whites and natural linen fabrics to soften its cool undertone, or use deeper navy and slate details for more contrast.

LRV of Angel's Wings

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 58.4%, 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.
