French Clay combines the depth of a medium, warm gray with a hint of warmth beneath the surface for a classic effect. With an LRV of 54, it works as a versatile whole-home neutral for living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways. The closest cross-brand match is Benjamin Moore's Antique, an extremely close match. RAL's Stone Grey is another strong alternative. Try it alongside a cool-toned accent to create visual balance, or lean into warmth with natural wood tones.
