What color is Sherwin Williams Dancing Green?

Sherwin Williams Dancing Green SW 6716 is a light, muted yellow-green with a noticeable olive cast. Its soft, dusty quality keeps the color from reading overly bright, while the yellow undertone gives it more warmth than a typical sage. In sunlit rooms, Dancing Green can appear fresher and slightly more chartreuse; under cooler or lower light, it settles into a quieter, earthier green. It suits kitchen walls, breakfast nooks, mudrooms, and painted cabinetry where a gentle natural color is wanted without going dark. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, woven rattan, aged brass, and clay or terracotta accents for a grounded palette.

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 57.85%, 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.
