What color is Sherwin Williams Edgy Gold?

Sherwin Williams Edgy Gold SW 6409 is a muted golden yellow with an earthy, brown-leaning cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its medium depth gives walls noticeable color without the sharp intensity of a clear sunflower yellow. In daylight, Edgy Gold can read as a dusty ochre, while warmer evening lighting tends to emphasize its mellow, antique-gold character. It suits dining rooms, studies, powder rooms, or a kitchen island where a warmer focal color feels appropriate. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, and natural woods such as walnut or oak.

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 32.44%, 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.
