The Basics

What are people saying about this color?

An oversized white open quotation mark indicating a quote.
Chantilly Lace from Benjamin Moore is a crisp, clean white that lends itself equally well in either a modern or traditional home. It picks up the tones in natural lighting and does not interfere with artificial light sources. Art looks amazing against this hue, but it is perfectly fine to be a naked wall. — Nancy Mayerfield
