What color is Benjamin Moore Tapestry Gold?
Benjamin Moore Tapestry Gold 2153-30 is a deep, earthy golden ochre with a noticeable brown cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright yellow. Its mid-to-dark depth gives walls a strong presence, especially in dining rooms, entryways, or studies where richer color feels appropriate. In direct daylight, Tapestry Gold can read warmer and more golden, while evening light draws out its muted, tawny side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, dark walnut, aged brass, and textured linen for a layered, collected look. It also makes a compelling choice for a single accent wall, built-in cabinetry, or a front door against pale stone or warm white siding.

LRV of Tapestry Gold
Tapestry Gold has an LRV of 26.57% 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 26.57%, 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.
