Harp Strings
Benjamin Moore's Harp Strings is a yellow shade whose quieter details emerge through comparison. A yellow undertone may emerge most clearly where the paint meets a cleaner white, stone surface or contrasting textile. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
