Sherwin Williams Cayenne SW 6881 is a saturated, earthy red-orange with a noticeable warm clay character. Its #c04d35 color value gives it enough depth to feel grounded on a feature wall, while the orange-red cast keeps it energetic rather than dark or wine-toned. In bright daylight, Cayenne can read clearer and more sunbaked; lower or warmer light brings out its richer terracotta side. Use it for a dining room wall, a painted front door, or kitchen cabinetry where a strong color is welcome. It pairs especially well with creamy off-whites, warm beige, natural wood, aged brass, black metal, and olive-toned accents.
