What color is Benjamin Moore Prussian Blue?
Benjamin Moore Prussian Blue CW-625 is a medium-deep blue with a muted, slightly smoky cast rather than a bright nautical clarity. Its blue-gray character reads cool and grounded, with enough depth to give walls definition without turning the room overly dark. In strong daylight, this shade can appear clearer and a touch more blue, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its softened, slate-like side. It is well suited to studies, dining rooms, powder rooms, or a bedroom accent wall, and it can give painted cabinetry a tailored look. Pair Prussian Blue with soft white trim, pale gray-beige textiles, weathered oak, brushed nickel, or warm brass for contrast.

LRV of Prussian Blue
Prussian Blue has an LRV of 12.17% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 12.17%, 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.
