PRESS RELEASE

Classic, iconic and captivating, the Historical Colours palette from Benjamin Moore is a collection of 174 time-honoured shades. Inspired by the colours found in 18th and 19th century architecture, these muted and inviting hues form Benjamin Moore’s most popular palette.

Tried and true, the Historical Colours collection has remained part of Benjamin Moore’s staple offering since the 1960s. From the timeless tone of Chelsea Gray to the deep sophisticated shade of Hale Navy, the palette offers some of the brand’s most popular colours. Beautiful and sophisticated, familiar and comfortable, these delicately soft and muted tones are not just suited to traditional spaces but contemporary and transitional schemes as well.

Create understated yet eye-catching backdrops with elegant greys such as Kendall Charcoal or for those looking to bring a brighter tone to their schemes turn to customer favourites Whipple Blue or Guilford Green for that ultimate fresh and comfortable feel. From the deep and luxurious to the neutral and fresh, each and every shade from the Historical Colours palette illuminates its surroundings, delivering a liveable and timeless colour scheme.

Underpinning all of the fantastic Benjamin Moore product lines is the proprietary Gennex® Waterborne colourant technology. All Benjamin Moore paints are custom mixed, giving customers access to an unrivalled palette of colours. Gennex® colourants fortify the paint to enhance colour durability for a long lasting and resilient finish.
