About Glazed Pear
Glazed Pear (1092) is a deep, medium-strength beige from Benjamin Moore that leans peach. With an LRV of 23, Glazed Pear absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Glazed Pear's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, offices, accent walls and kitchen cabinets. Next to Dark Mustard (2161-30), it's cooler.
