What color is Sherwin Williams Antique Red?
Sherwin Williams Antique Red SW 7587 is a grounded, medium-deep red with a softly muted, brick-like cast. Its #9f4442 color value shows a clear red presence tempered by low brightness, giving it more weight than a bright traditional red. In daylight, Antique Red can read as an earthy red, while lower or warmer lighting may make its depth feel more pronounced. It has enough visual density for a dining room, library, front door, or a single accent wall, and it can also bring character to painted cabinetry. Pair it with warm whites, charcoal, aged brass, natural wood, or blackened metal for contrast that keeps the red at the center of the scheme.

LRV of Antique Red
Antique Red has an LRV of 11.89% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 11.89%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
