What color is Sherwin Williams Classy Red?
Sherwin Williams Classy Red SW 2913 is a deep, saturated red with a dark, grounded presence. Its #911f21 color value reads as a rich red rather than a bright cherry tone, holding its intensity even on a large wall. In strong daylight, the red becomes clearer and more energetic, while lower or warmer lighting can make it appear deeper and more shadowed. Classy Red is especially effective on a dining-room accent wall, a front door, built-in cabinetry, or a small powder room where a bold color can feel intentional. Pair it with warm white trim, natural wood, aged brass, black accents, or creamy stone for contrast.

LRV of Classy Red
Classy Red has an LRV of 5.9% 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 5.9%, 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.
