Give this sample a clear job
Sample Benjamin Moore Cinnamon Slate 2113-40 beside the fixed finishes, in the intended orientation and under normal room lighting. The trial should settle a plum-brown room without accidental mauve overload . Cinnamon Slate's plum-brown mixture makes it a color choice with depth, rather than a generic neutral taupe.
Why the walnut furniture and neutral wool relationship matters
Walnut can repeat the brown side while neutral wool leaves space for plum, avoiding a scheme in which every material adds mauve.
Cinnamon Slate has an LRV of 19.71; Benjamin Moore Velvet Plum CSP-420 is 12.45. The difference is 7.26 points, with Cinnamon Slate returning more light under the reference measurement.
Keep the comparison fair
Use a large dried Cinnamon Slate board and inspect it at the darkest intended position. Photograph the area only as a planning record; judge the color in person with the normal lamps. Compare the full painted shape before assuming a small dark chip predicts the room's enclosure.
Approve the actual coating and the least favorable view
Keep one large fabric deliberately neutral; let the plum-brown be the color statement. The undertones and neighboring colors covers that related choice. The trim color comparison covers that related choice.
Keep the approved dried board with the complete Benjamin Moore 2113-40 product and finish specification. Follow the actual coating instructions for application, drying and preparation; the color name does not settle those requirements. The daylight and evening-light checks covers that related choice. Before ordering samples, compare room-planning features in the paint color visualizer roundup.
