What color is Sherwin Williams Baked Clay?

Sherwin Williams Baked Clay SW 6340 is a warm, mid-tone clay orange with a softened terracotta cast. Its #c1785c color value shows a noticeable earthy red-orange base, tempered by a dusty brown influence that keeps it from reading overly bright. In strong daylight, this shade can appear clearer and more sunbaked, while lower or warmer light brings out its deeper, more grounded rust notes. Use it on a dining room wall, a powder room, or built-in cabinetry where its substantial color can take center stage. Baked Clay pairs naturally with creamy off-whites, warm wood, aged brass, woven fibers, and muted olive or deep brown accents.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 25.58%, 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.
