What color is Benjamin Moore Etruscan?

Benjamin Moore Etruscan AF-355 is a medium warm tan with a clear golden-brown cast, closely reflected in its #AF8255 color value. It has enough earthy saturation to read as more than a neutral, yet it remains softened rather than bright or orange. In bright daylight, Etruscan can show its sunbaked ochre side, while lower light brings out a deeper, browner appearance. It suits dining rooms, studies, entryways, or cabinetry where a grounded wall color feels appropriate. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, aged brass, cognac leather, and natural wood for a layered, material-rich look.

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 26.1%, 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.
