What color is Sherwin Williams Earthen Jug?
Sherwin Williams Earthen Jug SW 7703 is a medium-depth, earthy terracotta with a clear red-orange cast. Its warmth is noticeable without reading overly bright, giving walls the grounded look of sun-baked clay. In strong natural light, the orange tones become more apparent, while lower or cooler light can bring out its deeper reddish-brown side. Earthen Jug makes a memorable choice for a dining room, powder room, front door, or fireplace surround, and it can also bring substantial color to kitchen cabinetry. Pair it with warm off-whites, muted olive greens, natural oak, aged brass, and woven textures for a material-rich palette.
LRV of Earthen Jug
Earthen Jug has an LRV of 16.7% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 16.7%, 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.
