Sherwin Williams Heartthrob SW 6866 is a saturated raspberry pink with a red base and a noticeable blue-magenta cast. It reads bold and energetic rather than soft, making it better suited to a focal wall, painted furniture, or a powder room than to every wall in a large room. In clear daylight, its pink side comes forward, while evening bulbs can pull it toward a richer berry red. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, brass hardware, or black accents to give the color some structure. For a more dramatic look, Heartthrob looks especially good beside deep navy, dark green, walnut, and natural linen.
