What color is Benjamin Moore Mink?

Benjamin Moore Mink 2112-10 is a deep, muted brown with a noticeable charcoal-gray cast, giving it a grounded, low-saturation appearance. Its restrained warmth keeps it from reading as a flat black or cool gray, especially in rooms with warm bulbs or afternoon light. In dimmer spaces, Mink can look almost black-brown, while brighter light reveals its earthy brown base. Use it on cabinetry, interior doors, a library wall, or a dining room accent where its depth can be balanced with pale plaster tones, warm white trim, oak, walnut, aged brass, and matte black details.

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 7.33%, 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.
