Spring Refresh | Black Paints

Today, I’m covering black paints; they pair so well together for a sharp contrast. People are painting their windows, doors, or even cabinets black. I also love the drama it can create when a whole room is painted black!

WROUGHT IRON by Benjamin Moore

I love this charcoal, almost black, color! I used it on the back wall of this dining room for some added drama, but keeping it away from stark black made it tie in with some of the more historical looking elements. There is a slight undertone of brown which adds to the versatility of this color; making it pair well with warm tones.

IRON ORE by Sherwin Williams

Another rich charcoal, and a color that is very comparable to Wrought Iron. These colors can also be considered a soft black which is why they are included in this round-up. I use these colors for drama and accents. Ive used this on cabinets, doors, and stair rails against white and it always looks clean and beautiful.

SOOT by Benjamin Moore

Another dark charcoal with warm undertones. This color is a little deeper than the previous two.

BLACK BEAUTY by Benjamin Moore

Black Beauty, 2128- 10 is a bold color choice and you’ll notice the color is very similar to Onyx. The LRV of Black Beauty is 3.26, so it’s less of a true black when compared to Onyx.

CAVIAR by Sherwin Williams

This is a deep black that has a small amount of brown tint which warms it up.

TRICORN BLACK by Sherwin Williams

This is a very popular black! It is very deep and doesn’t have a lot of undertones so I often recommend it to clients that want a true black. It looks great on a kitchen island with white cabinet surrrounds.

BLACK MAGIC by Sherwin Williams

This is another deep black that is similar to Tricorn Black and Caviar. It has a warm undertone which makes it very comparable to Caviar. If you want black doors, this would be a great black to use.
