What color is Sherwin Williams Crabby Apple?

Sherwin Williams Crabby Apple SW 7592 is a deep, earthy red with a noticeable brown cast, giving it the look of aged brick or dark dried clay. Its low-to-medium brightness keeps the color grounded rather than bright, while the red base still brings warmth to a room. In strong daylight, Crabby Apple can read as a fuller muted red; at night or in shaded spaces, its brown depth becomes more pronounced. It is especially effective on dining room walls, library-style offices, front doors, or built-in cabinetry where a darker color can define the architecture. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, worn leather, black metal, or creamy stone for a layered, material-rich scheme.

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 6.55%, 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.
