What color is Benjamin Moore Gladstone Tan?

Benjamin Moore Gladstone Tan 1106 is a medium warm tan with a clear golden-brown cast and a gently muted, earthy finish. Its color value, #AC8255, reads like sunbaked clay or natural leather rather than a pale beige, giving walls noticeable depth without becoming dark. In bright daylight, the golden notes come forward; under warmer evening bulbs, this shade can appear richer and more caramel-toned. It suits dining rooms, entryways, dens, and exterior trim where a grounded warm neutral is wanted. Pair Gladstone Tan with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, and materials such as oak, aged brass, terracotta, or woven natural fibers.

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 25.52%, 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.
