Sherwin Williams Hickory Smoke SW 7027 is a deep, smoky brown with muted charcoal undertones that keep it from reading overly red or rustic. It has the weight of weathered hickory wood, making it especially effective on a study, dining room walls, built-in shelves, or a front door. In bright daylight, its gray cast is more noticeable; under warm lamps, it settles into a richer espresso-brown. Pair it with soft warm whites, natural linen, aged brass, pale oak, or veined stone to bring out its grounded character. On cabinetry or trim, this shade gives a room strong definition without the sharper contrast of black.
