About Polar Jade

Polar Jade (CC-754) is a very dark, muted blue from Benjamin Moore that leans green. With an LRV of 13, Polar Jade absorbs most light. It creates a dramatic, enveloping look and suits accent walls, cabinetry and well-lit rooms.

North-facing light makes Polar Jade read cooler and slightly darker, while warm south-facing light softens it. It's a good fit for accent walls, front doors, cabinetry and powder rooms. It's very close to Polished Slate (713); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

How Polar Jade changes with the light

Polar Jade is a deep color. In north-facing or dim rooms it reads darker and cozier; in south-facing rooms it shows more of its color. Either can work, depending on the mood you want.

N

North-facing rooms

Polar Jade will read even deeper in north light: great for a cozy, enveloping room, less so if you want it bright.

E

East-facing rooms

Polar Jade will look warmer and brighter in the morning and cooler and grayer by afternoon; check a sample at both times.

S

South-facing rooms

South light keeps Polar Jade from feeling heavy, so deep colors work well here.

W

West-facing rooms

Polar Jade looks cool in the morning and warms up in the golden late-afternoon light.
