What color is Benjamin Moore Country White?
Benjamin Moore Country White 898 is a pale, creamy off-white with a clear warm beige cast. Its #F9E9D1 color value gives it a softly sunlit appearance, leaning away from stark white and toward a light ivory with subtle peachy warmth. In bright daylight, it can read clean and lightly creamy, while lower or warmer lighting brings out more of its buttery beige character. Country White suits living room and bedroom walls where a crisp white might feel too sharp, and it can also soften kitchen cabinetry or trim. Pair it with natural oak, woven linen, warm brass, terracotta, or muted olive accents for a grounded, earthy palette.

LRV of Country White
Country White has an LRV of 80.21% and refers to Off‑White 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 80.21%, 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.
