A medium, cool yellow, African Queen carries balanced undertones and a distinctly soothing presence. With an LRV of 36, it provides enough depth for visual interest while remaining approachable — ideal for dining rooms and studies. The closest cross-brand match is Behr's Ground Pepper, an extremely close match. Hirshfield's's African Queen is another strong alternative.
