What color is Farrow and Ball Jitney?
Farrow and Ball Jitney 293 is a muted light beige with a noticeable warm, softly rosy cast in its #c4b2a2 color value. It sits at a gentle mid-light depth, giving walls more presence than a pale cream without reading dark or heavily saturated. In daylight, its warm beige character can feel clean and understated, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out its subdued pink-brown undertone. Use it in living rooms, bedrooms, or hallways where natural wood, linen upholstery, clay ceramics, and brushed brass are part of the scheme. Jitney also makes a grounded cabinet color beside off-white walls and stone or pale oak surfaces.

What are Farrow and Ball Jitney undertones?
Jitney is a mid-light, muted brown-based neutral with a soft beige and orange-leaning character. In the supplied digital sample, it shows a slight warm bias toward red and yellow, which gives the brown-beige base an earthy cast rather than a gray one. Farrow & Ball describes it as a “brown based neutral” with an “earthy tone,” which aligns with that visibly warm, subdued main color family. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its beige-orange warmth, while cool daylight can make it appear a little more restrained and neutral.

LRV of Jitney
Jitney has an LRV of 46.57% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 46.57%, 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.
