Shaker Beige
Benjamin Moore
HC-45
Shaker Beige is a true, golden beige with no apologies: warm, classic, and built for traditional interiors. It works through living rooms, halls, and dining rooms with white trim, and it complements warm wood furniture better than the grayer neutrals that replaced it in fashion. For clients returning to warm palettes, it remains a dependable anchor.

Is Shaker Beige warm or cool?
Shaker Beige is thoroughly warm, with golden-yellow undertones and no gray hedging. Its LRV is approximately 55, a true mid-light that reads as a definite beige rather than an off-white. Sunlight brings out its gold; evening lamplight makes it cozier still. It suits warm-toned schemes with cream trim and wood furniture, and it will clash with cool grays, so commit to warmth throughout.
Why does Shaker Beige look different on screen than on the wall?
Screens emit light while paint reflects it, so a hex code cannot capture how lighting, sheen, and surrounding colors shift paint in a real room. Treat #D1C2A7 as accurate for digital design work, and use physical samples for final approval.
What LRV does Shaker Beige have?
Shaker Beige has a Light Reflectance Value of approximately 55, meaning it reflects about 55% of visible light. That mid-range depth reads as a true color on the wall without going dark.
