What color is Sherwin Williams Jasper?
Sherwin Williams Jasper SW 6216 is a deep, muted green-gray with a charcoal cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its low saturation gives the color a restrained, earthy appearance, with the green reading more clearly in daylight and receding toward near-black in dim rooms. Jasper can give cabinetry, a study, or a dining room a dense, enveloping backdrop without introducing a sharp contrast. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, or stone surfaces to bring out its subtle green character. On an exterior door or shutter, this shade has enough depth to stand apart against lighter siding and masonry.

What are Sherwin Williams Jasper undertones?
Jasper reads as a deep, very muted green with a dark, grounded overall character and low saturation. In the supplied digital sample, the green direction is subtle, with a slight yellow-green bias rather than a strong blue-green cast. Sherwin-Williams identifies Jasper as a green paint color, which matches its visible green main family, though the HEX sample alone cannot confirm a manufacturer-defined undertone. Warm artificial light may bring out its muted yellow-green lean slightly, while cool daylight can make it appear a bit more restrained and neutral.

LRV of Jasper
Jasper has an LRV of 4.11% 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 4.11%, 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.
