Benjamin Moore Tea Light 471 is a light, muted green with a noticeable gray cast and a soft yellow-green undertone. Its low saturation keeps it from reading overly minty, giving walls a gently weathered, almost mineral appearance. In bright daylight, Tea Light can look cleaner and slightly greener, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its subdued olive side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet living areas, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, and brushed brass. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents, deep forest green, or earthy clay-toned textiles.
