What color is Sherwin Williams Fiery Brown?

Sherwin Williams Fiery Brown SW 6055 is a deep, muted reddish brown with a clear warm cast. Its low-light value gives it a grounded, substantial look, while the red in the color keeps it from reading as a plain dark brown. In bright natural light, Fiery Brown may show more of its earthy brick-red character; in dimmer rooms, it settles into a richer near-brown shade. It suits dining rooms, studies, powder rooms, or a fireplace wall where a darker color can feel intentional rather than heavy. Pair it with warm ivory, soft tan, aged brass, natural oak, or blackened metal for contrast and texture.

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 5.4%, 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.
