What color is Benjamin Moore White Winged Dove?

Benjamin Moore White Winged Dove 1457 is a pale, softly muted off-white with a gentle warm-gray cast. Its light value keeps walls bright without reading as a stark, blue-leaning white, while the slight warmth helps it sit comfortably alongside natural oak, linen, and aged brass. In direct daylight, this color can appear clean and lightly gray; under warmer evening bulbs, its beige-tinged softness becomes more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and ceilings where a quiet neutral backdrop is wanted. Pair White Winged Dove with charcoal accents, earthy taupes, muted green-gray textiles, or warm wood finishes for contrast.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
