What color is Sherwin Williams Crescent Moon?
Sherwin Williams Crescent Moon SW 7124 is a very light, creamy off-white with a clear warm yellow cast. Its soft depth keeps it from reading as stark white, especially beside crisp white trim or cool gray finishes. In bright daylight, Crescent Moon can appear pale and lightly sunlit, while evening lighting brings forward its buttery cream character. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens where a gentle warm backdrop is wanted, and it can also soften cabinetry or interior trim. Pair it with natural oak, woven linen, warm brass, muted terracotta, or deeper olive accents for an earthy, grounded palette.

LRV of Crescent Moon
Crescent Moon has an LRV of 87.02% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 87.02%, 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.
