What color is Benjamin Moore Antique Bronze?

Benjamin Moore Antique Bronze 217 is a warm, mid-tone golden brown with an ochre cast that keeps it earthy rather than bright. Its muted saturation gives the color a grounded presence on walls, especially in dining rooms, studies, or entryways that benefit from a little depth. In strong daylight, Antique Bronze can read more golden, while lower or warmer lighting brings forward its brown, toasted quality. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, and natural woods such as walnut or medium oak. It is particularly effective on cabinetry, a feature wall, or painted trim where its concentrated warmth can be appreciated up close.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 34.45%, 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.
