What color is Sherwin Williams Cherries Jubilee?

Sherwin Williams Cherries Jubilee SW 6862 is a saturated berry red with clear pink-magenta undertones, closer to crushed cherries than a traditional brick or barn red. It reads energetic and fairly bright on a large wall, especially in direct daylight, while warm evening lamps bring out its richer raspberry side. This shade is best used with intention: on a dining room accent wall, a powder room, a front door, or painted cabinetry where its strong color can take center stage. Warm white trim, walnut furniture, aged brass, and deep green upholstery give it a grounded contrast, while pale oak and natural linen keep the room from feeling too heavy.

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 12.4%, 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.
