What color is Sherwin Williams Dusted Truffle?
Sherwin Williams Dusted Truffle SW 9083 is a muted mid-tone brown with a noticeable rosy cast and soft gray restraint. Its #9c8373 color value gives it an earthy, low-saturation appearance that reads warmer in afternoon sun and slightly more subdued under cool artificial light. On walls, Dusted Truffle can bring grounded color to a dining room, bedroom, or den without becoming as heavy as a deep chocolate brown. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, aged brass, walnut furniture, and natural linen for a layered, material-focused look. It also has enough depth to define cabinetry or a painted interior door when surrounded by lighter neutral walls.

LRV of Dusted Truffle
Dusted Truffle has an LRV of 24.68% 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 24.68%, 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.
