About Wrought Iron

Wrought Iron LRV and undertone

Benjamin Moore Wrought Iron (2124-10) has an LRV of 8.17, placing it firmly in the dark range. Its color family is black, and its calculated undertone is neutral. LRV measures the proportion of visible light a surface reflects, so this low value means Wrought Iron reflects relatively little light. On walls, that can make the painted area appear substantially darker than surrounding pale surfaces. Its neutral undertone provides a useful starting point when comparing it with warmer or cooler colors, although lighting can still affect perceived color. In rooms with limited daylight, test a sample across different walls and observe it throughout the day. A lighter trim color can create a clear contrast against this dark finish.

Wrought Iron in other brands

Sherwin-Williams Cyberspace (SW 7076) is the closest listed alternative, with an LRV of 6.0 and a ΔE of 2.7. This indicates a close match, but the difference should remain visible when samples sit side by side. Sherwin-Williams Iron Ore (SW 7069) also has an LRV of 6.0 and a ΔE of 3.1, making it another close match. PPG Black Magic (PPG1001-7) has an LRV of 4.0 and a ΔE of 3.5. Its lower LRV means it reflects less light. Behr Midnight Blue (N480-7) has an LRV of 9.0 and a ΔE of 6.2, so it is only similar rather than a close match. These measurements help narrow the choices, but physical samples remain useful for evaluating the visible differences.
