As a medium, warm gray, Dowager brings a classic energy through its warm golden undertones. With an LRV of 54, it works as a versatile whole-home neutral for living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways. MPC offers Metal Olive Met. as a near-identical match, while Vista Paint's Dowager is also very similar. It pairs well with crisp whites for contrast and warm metallics like brass or gold for cohesion.
