What color is Sherwin Williams Bolero?
Sherwin Williams Bolero SW 7600 is a deep, earthy red with a clear warm cast and a muted, clay-like quality. Its medium-dark value gives it enough weight for a dining room, library, or powder room, where it can create a grounded backdrop without reading as overly bright. In strong daylight, Bolero shows more of its red character, while lower or warmer light brings out its darker, brown-leaning depth. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, blackened metal, and natural woods such as walnut or oak. It is particularly effective on cabinetry, a fireplace surround, or a single accent wall when the rest of the room needs a richer focal point.

Complementary color scheme

LRV of Bolero
Bolero has an LRV of 9.14% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 9.14%, 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.
