What color is Benjamin Moore Glazed Green?
Benjamin Moore Glazed Green 499 is a light, muted yellow-green with a soft, chalky cast. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the green presence is gentle rather than botanical or bright. In daylight, this shade can read as a subdued celery green; under warmer bulbs, its yellow undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits kitchens, breakfast rooms, and quiet hallways, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, limestone, or brushed brass. Use Glazed Green on cabinetry for a low-contrast color statement, or pair it with deeper olive accents and natural woven textures for added definition.

LRV of Glazed Green
Glazed Green has an LRV of 66.75% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 66.75%, 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.
