A golden undertone, warm without leaning red. LRV is light reflectance value, the share of light a surface sends back, the same scale paint makers print on every chip: 0 is black, 100 is white.
Natural Relic has a gentle movement from board to board (a spread of 2.2 in L*): calm, but not flat.
The shaded band is within 30 points of the floor. A wall inside it blurs into the floor; BS 8300 asks for at least 30 points between surfaces that meet.

What to avoid
The near misses, by the numbers.
- Walls at the lightness of Natural Relic: Jockey Hollow Gray (Benjamin Moore HC-108, LRV 39.5) sits within a point of its LRV of 40, so wall and floor would blur into one.
- Wood that almost matches Natural Relic: a tone like our Country White sample, 4.9 apart (CIEDE2000), reads as a near miss. Go clearly darker or lighter.
- Walls that lean yellow: yellow on yellow flattens the golden undertone of Natural Relic (hue 74°).
Questions
About Natural Relic and color, answered from the numbers above.
What wall color goes with Natural Relic flooring?
White Dove (Benjamin Moore OC-17, LRV 83.2): a soft neutral with a touch of warmth (hue 105°), so Natural Relic stays golden without turning yellow. It sits 43 LRV points from the floor (LRV 40), more than the 30 points that keep a wall and a floor reading apart. Or Dover White (Sherwin-Williams SW 6385, LRV 82.5).
What trim and ceiling color goes with Natural Relic?
Alabaster (Sherwin-Williams SW 7008, LRV 82.2): 42 points over Natural Relic in LRV and warm enough (chroma 5.3) to read white, not blue, beside its golden undertone.
What accent color goes with Natural Relic?
Black (Benjamin Moore HC-190, LRV 4.6): deep and quiet, 35 points darker than Natural Relic in LRV, a frame for a golden floor. Lower cabinets or an island in Black, uppers and trim in Alabaster. The floor at LRV 40 sits between the two (5 and 82).
What wood furniture goes with Natural Relic?
Contrast, not a match: a step darker: a warm gray brown wood (like our Warm Gray stain sample), or a step lighter: black or painted pieces. A wood like our Country White sample is only 4.9 apart (CIEDE2000) and reads as a near miss.
How do I put a room together around Natural Relic?
Living room: White Dove walls and Alabaster trim, a walnut brown rug with a mocha edge on Natural Relic, a coffee table in a warm gray brown wood. Kitchen: Black on the island, Alabaster cabinets above, matte black pulls, Natural Relic underfoot.
Is Natural Relic a light or a dark floor?
Mid tone: LRV 40 and L* 69, measured from its own picture, with a golden undertone. At LRV 40, Natural Relic is a mid tone: it holds its color in a sunny room and hides everyday dust and pet hair better than a very dark or very light floor.
What colors should I avoid with Natural Relic?
Walls at the lightness of Natural Relic: Jockey Hollow Gray (Benjamin Moore HC-108, LRV 39.5) sits within a point of its LRV of 40, so wall and floor would blur into one. Wood that almost matches Natural Relic: a tone like our Country White sample, 4.9 apart (CIEDE2000), reads as a near miss. Go clearly darker or lighter.
The room it suits
Light, size and wear, from the floor's own record.
At LRV 40, Natural Relic is a mid tone: it holds its color in a sunny room and hides everyday dust and pet hair better than a very dark or very light floor.
At 7 inches a board, Natural Relic lays about 21 boards across a 12 foot room, so the room reads open with few seams.
Natural Relic is waterproof, so it belongs in kitchens, baths, mudrooms and basements as well as living spaces.

From the floor's own record
What only this floor's data can say.
One of our most-asked-for floors: estimated 3 times, chosen 3 times since 2026.
Natural Relic is lighter than 80 percent of the 1,197 vinyl floors we carry, measured the same way, and warmer than 92 percent of them.
The same look in real wood: Biscotti matte, Superior Premier Engineered Hickory 5-3/16 in, only 0.9 apart in color (CIEDE2000).
To get this color on an oak floor you already have, the nearest of our stains is Country White (4.9 apart, CIEDE2000, from our own photographs on red oak).

How we chose
Paint names, codes, hex and LRV as Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore publish them (each color links to its page).
BS 8300-2:2018 asks for a difference of at least 30 LRV points between adjacent surfaces, such as a floor and a wall, so the surfaces read apart.
The floor measured from its own picture in CIELAB (D65); the wood tones from our own photographs of 37 stains on oak.
A picture's lightness depends a little on how it was lit, so the floor's LRV is read from the evenly lit field the visualizer lays and rounded. See the real floor before you choose paint: visit the showroom, or ask for a free measure and estimate.
