What color is Benjamin Moore Grenadier Pond?
Benjamin Moore Grenadier Pond 698 is a muted green-gray with a soft, lightly cool cast and low, earthy saturation. Its balanced mid-tone depth keeps it present on the wall without making a room feel dark or overly colorful. In bright daylight, the green comes forward more clearly, while lower or warmer light can make the color read closer to a weathered gray. Grenadier Pond suits bedrooms, bathrooms, mudrooms, and painted cabinetry, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, and natural linen. For contrast, pair it with deep charcoal, inky navy, or a warm clay-toned accent.

What are Benjamin Moore Grenadier Pond undertones?
Grenadier Pond is a mid-light, muted green with a soft gray cast and low saturation, so it reads as restrained rather than bright or leafy. The supplied digital color leans slightly yellow-green overall, while Benjamin Moore describes it as a medium green with “a hint of slate blue,” which suggests a cool blue bias that can temper its visible green character. In warm artificial light, the green may appear a little softer and less cool; in cool daylight, the blue-gray influence may be easier to notice.

LRV of Grenadier Pond
Grenadier Pond has an LRV of 34.48% and refers to Medium 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 34.48%, 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.
