What color is Benjamin Moore Persian Violet?
Benjamin Moore Persian Violet 1419 is a softened blue-violet with a gently muted, mid-tone presence. Its #929BC2 color value reads primarily cool, showing a powdery lavender cast alongside its blue base rather than a sharply saturated purple. In bright daylight, the blue notes may appear clearer, while lower or warmer artificial light can bring out more of its violet character. It suits bedroom walls, a reading nook, or painted cabinetry where a calm wash of color is wanted without making the surface feel too dark. Pair Persian Violet with soft white trim, pale gray-blue textiles, light oak, or brushed nickel for a clean, understated scheme.

LRV of Persian Violet
Persian Violet has an LRV of 35.25% 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 35.25%, 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.
