What color is Benjamin Moore Chopped Dill?
Benjamin Moore Chopped Dill 496 is a muted olive-khaki with a weathered yellow-brown cast. Its medium depth keeps it grounded, while the restrained saturation prevents it from reading overly green. In bright daylight, Chopped Dill can show more of its dry olive character; under warm lamps, it tends to lean toward softened brown and antique brass tones. It suits a study, mudroom, pantry, or kitchen cabinetry, especially alongside creamy off-whites, deep charcoal, aged bronze hardware, and natural oak. On walls, pair this shade with textured linen, leather, and matte black accents for a room with a practical, lived-in feel.
LRV of Chopped Dill
Chopped Dill has an LRV of 21.03% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 21.03%, 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.
