What color is Benjamin Moore Wrought Iron?

Benjamin Moore Wrought Iron 2124-10 is a deep charcoal gray with a subtly cool, blue-gray cast visible beneath its near-black depth. In bright daylight, Wrought Iron reads as a clear, softened charcoal rather than flat black, while dim rooms can make it appear much darker and more graphic. It gives kitchen cabinetry, interior doors, and built-in shelving a strong outline without the starkness of pure black. Use it on walls in rooms with ample natural light, or reserve it for an accent wall when a darker backdrop is needed. Pale warm whites, light oak, brushed brass, and creamy stone bring out this shade’s quiet contrast.

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 8.17%, 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.
