What color is Sherwin Williams Jadite?
Sherwin Williams Jadite SW 6459 is a muted, medium-depth green with a noticeable gray cast and a faint blue-green lean. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading as bright or leafy, giving walls a grounded, painted-plaster look. In brighter daylight, Jadite shows its green more clearly, while lower or warmer light can bring out its subdued, smoky quality. It suits studies, dining rooms, mudrooms, and cabinetry where a deeper color is wanted without the weight of charcoal or navy. Pair it with warm off-whites, weathered oak, aged brass, matte black details, or dusty clay tones for contrast.

LRV of Jadite
Jadite has an LRV of 19.59% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 19.59%, 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.
