How they read
In their own wordsSilken Blue CSP-670 is a mid-tone blue-gray from Benjamin Moore's Color Stories collection. The brand describes it as a deep, grayed blue, and lists an LRV of 41.26.
Silver Metallic is a Meoded decorative plaster rather than a flat paint — a pewter-toned finish with a pearl sheen that shifts as you move through the room. In daylight it reads as a soft warm grey; at night, with candles and lamps, it glimmers like brushed metal.
