What color is Sherwin Williams Majestic Purple?
Sherwin Williams Majestic Purple SW 6545 is a deep, muted blue-violet that reads more like an inky twilight shade than a bright purple. Its cool cast and low brightness give it substantial visual weight, especially in rooms with limited natural light. On a full wall, Majestic Purple suits studies, dining rooms, or bedrooms where a darker backdrop feels intentional; it can also make a strong choice for built-ins or a painted interior door. Pair it with soft off-whites, pale gray-blue tones, warm oak, or brushed brass to bring out its subtle violet character. In brighter daylight, the blue notes may appear more noticeable, while evening lighting tends to emphasize its shadowy purple depth.

LRV of Majestic Purple
Majestic Purple has an LRV of 4.86% 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 4.86%, 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.
