What color is Benjamin Moore Violet Stone?

Benjamin Moore Violet Stone 2069-40 is a muted blue-violet with a softened, gray-cast finish that keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. Its cool lean is apparent, though the violet influence adds a gentle fullness that can shift between periwinkle and smoky lavender as daylight changes. Use it in a bedroom, reading nook, or powder room where a mid-depth color can bring definition without making the walls feel heavy. Crisp white trim sharpens its blue notes, while pale oak, weathered wood, brushed nickel, and soft charcoal give it a grounded backdrop. Violet Stone also makes a thoughtful accent for built-ins or cabinetry paired with creamy off-white walls.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 29.35%, 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.
