Bringing the Past and the Present Together
Experts call the Williamsburg collection both "historic and distinctly modern". To bring this collection to life, the experts at Benjamin Moore examined 18th-century design, wallpaper, paint, and even historical documents to recreate colors that bring out early American design and reflect the authentic colors of colonial America.
Some of our favorite colors and combinations in the Williamsburg collection include:
Carter Plum CW-355: a stunning plum color which is authentic, historic, and modern.
Dunmore Green: exciting, spirited, and elegant. This unique color is based on the green wallpaper orders found in the 1700s accounting books of Lord Botetourt at the Governor's Palace.
Curtis Salmon: discovered on the exterior of an 18th century home close to Williamsburg, Benjamin Moore experts recreated this unique color by mixing both red and white iron oxide pigments.
Bring History to Your Home
The Williamsburg collection is inspired by traditional American designs. The colors are all based on original pigments which were developed in colonial America. With colors that are timeless, historic, yet contemporary, this collection fuses the past and the present together to create a timeless appeal.
