What color is Sherwin Williams Fabulous Grape?
Sherwin Williams Fabulous Grape SW 6293 is a deep, muted purple with a noticeable red-wine cast. Its #6d344f color value gives it a grounded, medium-dark appearance rather than a bright or sugary violet. In daylight, the shade can read as a dusky plum, while lower or warmer lighting brings forward its richer berry-red undertones. Fabulous Grape is especially effective on a dining room wall, a powder room, or built-in cabinetry where its depth can be appreciated up close. Pair it with warm white trim, pale blush textiles, walnut wood, or aged brass for contrast that keeps the room from feeling too dark.

LRV of Fabulous Grape
Fabulous Grape has an LRV of 6.25% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 6.25%, 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.
