What color is Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter?

Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter HC-172 is a light, muted greige with a soft beige cast and a subtle gray grounding. Its low-saturation appearance keeps it from reading overly creamy or stark, giving walls a gently weathered, mineral-like look. In bright daylight, this color can appear lighter and more neutral, while dimmer rooms may bring out its warmer beige undertone. It suits living rooms, hallways, and bedrooms where a quiet neutral backdrop is wanted without the sharpness of a cool gray. Pair Revere Pewter with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, linen upholstery, and charcoal or deep olive accents for contrast.

What are Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter undertones?

Revere Pewter is a light, muted gray-beige with low saturation, so it reads as a soft neutral rather than a distinct gray or tan. In the supplied digital sample, the subtle visible bias leans slightly yellow, which can make the gray feel a little warmer without making it strongly beige. Benjamin Moore describes it as a neutral that bridges warm and cool tones, which fits its balanced gray-beige appearance. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its beige-yellow cast, while cool daylight can make its gray side more noticeable.

LRV of Revere Pewter

Revere Pewter has an LRV of 56.35% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?

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 56.35%, 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.
