What color is Sherwin Williams Chrysanthemum?
Sherwin Williams Chrysanthemum SW 6347 is a medium terracotta with a clear peachy-orange cast and softened rosy brown undertones. Its #c47b5b color value gives it noticeable warmth and earthy depth without reading as overly dark. In bright daylight, Chrysanthemum can look sunnier and more clay-like, while lower or warmer light brings forward its muted, dusty red notes. It makes a strong choice for a dining room, entry, powder room, or a single accent wall, and can also bring character to painted cabinetry. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm taupes, natural oak, aged brass, and matte black details for a grounded interior palette.

LRV of Chrysanthemum
Chrysanthemum has an LRV of 26.73% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 26.73%, 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.
