What color is Benjamin Moore Hidden Sapphire?
Benjamin Moore Hidden Sapphire CSP-690 is a deep blue-green with a distinctly cool, inky character. Its dark teal base can read nearly navy in low light, while brighter daylight brings out its green-blue cast more clearly. Use it on a study wall, powder room, built-in cabinetry, or a front door when the space can handle a strong, saturated color. Crisp white trim sharpens its depth, while pale oak, aged brass, warm leather, and muted sand tones keep the overall palette from feeling too cold. On larger walls, good lighting is important, since this shade’s depth can make a dim room feel noticeably darker.
LRV of Hidden Sapphire
Hidden Sapphire has an LRV of 6.21% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 6.21%, 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.
