Benjamin Moore Cromwell Gray HC-103 is a muted midtone gray with a brown-yellow cast that gives it an earthy, weathered look. It reads warmer than a straight charcoal or blue-gray, with enough softness to keep larger wall areas from feeling heavy. In cooler daylight, Cromwell Gray can appear more subdued and gray, while warm artificial light brings forward its khaki-brown undertones. Use it on living room walls, a study, or exterior trim alongside creamy off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, and linen upholstery. Deep olive, charcoal, and dusty clay accents also sit comfortably beside this shade.
