Wales Gray
Wales Gray is a Gray paint color from Benjamin Moore, but its character reaches beyond a single label. Its blue and grey classifications hint at the directions it may take as daylight, lamps and neighboring colors move around it. Treat the digital swatch as an opening note, then watch a physical sample from morning light through evening lamps.
