}On this page
Chantilly Lace is Benjamin Moore OC-65, from the Off White Collection, and the hex is #F4F6F1. Of the whites in this group it is the brightest by reflectance, and one of the cleanest.
Values at a glance
Expressed in RGB it is 244, 246, 241; in HSL, hsl(84, 22%, 95%). Do not let the 22% saturation mislead you, because at 95% lightness it is a rounding artifact. The OKLCH value tells the real story: oklch(97% 0.007 124.4), where a chroma of 0.007 means almost no tint. It measures as a true neutral and reads as a clean white in most light.
The LRV is 90.04. That is among the highest numbers you will see on a paint chip, which is why it is such a common choice for ceilings, trim and kitchens that need every bit of brightness.
Companions the brand names
The list for OC-65 includes White OC-151, Horizon OC-53, Seapearl OC-19 and Edgecomb Gray HC-173. Only Edgecomb Gray has a page on this site; its contrast against Chantilly Lace is 1.37:1, a soft step down rather than a hard edge. The others are given by name and code.
How close are the other whites
Within the brand: Simply White OC-117 is ΔE 1.9, White Dove OC-17 is 2.7 and Swiss Coffee OC-45 is 3.7. Simply White falls under 2, so on a wall you may struggle to tell them apart; the other two are visibly warmer.
At Sherwin-Williams, Extra White SW 7006 is only 1.5 away, Pure White SW 7005 is 2.5 and Snowbound SW 7004 is 3.5. As always, compare real samples in your own light.
Worked example
A small north-facing galley kitchen has white cabinets, a gray quartz counter and no direct sun. You are choosing between Chantilly Lace and Simply White. With ΔE only 1.9 separating them, the choice comes down to how the paint behaves in that dim light, so put two sample boards on the cabinet side and look at them at 10 a.m. and again at night.
If the cabinets and ceiling are both Chantilly Lace, the whole room uses a single LRV of 90.04, and the walls would be best set a notch deeper, such as Edgecomb Gray, to keep it from feeling like a lab.
Screen use
Black on #F4F6F1 scores 19.29:1; white on it just 1.08:1. Any page, sign or invoice with this background should carry dark text. Test combinations in the contrast grid.
