What color is Benjamin Moore Stonewashed?
Benjamin Moore Stonewashed 865 is a very light, muted green with a soft gray cast and a clean, airy appearance. Its low saturation keeps the green understated, so it can read nearly off-white in bright daylight while showing more of its gentle green tone in shaded areas or evening light. Use it on bedroom, bath, or kitchen walls when you want a pale color that still gives the room more definition than plain white. Stonewashed pairs nicely with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal accents. On cabinetry, it would create a quiet wash of color without making the room feel dark.

LRV of Stonewashed
Stonewashed has an LRV of 79.94% and refers to Off‑White 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 79.94%, 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.
