What color is Sherwin Williams Jolly Green?
Sherwin Williams Jolly Green SW 6931 is a bright, medium green with a noticeable yellow cast that gives it a fresh, leafy appearance. Its clear saturation makes it read as energetic rather than muted, especially in daylight or under cool white lighting. In warmer artificial light, the yellow undertone can come forward, making the shade feel more chartreuse-leaning. Use Jolly Green on a front door, garden-facing exterior detail, playroom accent wall, or painted furniture where its bold color can be intentional. It pairs well with crisp white trim, natural wood, charcoal gray, and deep navy for contrast.

LRV of Jolly Green
Jolly Green has an LRV of 29.74% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 29.74%, 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.
