Clay

Benjamin Moore Clay (1034) carries the measured structure of its color data and the less predictable beauty of paint in a finished space. Its warm classification can bring a gentle glow to the color, particularly beside natural wood and softer whites. The manufacturer's description below offers one reading; the room imagery leaves space for your own.
