What color is Benjamin Moore Colonial Verdigris?
Benjamin Moore Colonial Verdigris CW-530 is a deep, muted green with a noticeable gray cast and an earthy olive lean. Its low-light character gives it a grounded, almost weathered appearance, reading darker and more charcoal-green in shadowed rooms. In brighter natural light, the green becomes clearer while retaining its restrained, softened quality. Use Colonial Verdigris on cabinetry, a study wall, or exterior trim where its depth can anchor pale plaster, warm white paint, natural oak, and aged brass. It also pairs well with stone, linen, and clay-toned accents that echo its subdued yellow-green undertone.

LRV of Colonial Verdigris
Colonial Verdigris has an LRV of 8.75% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.75%, 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.
