What color is Sherwin Williams Marsh Fern?
Sherwin Williams Marsh Fern SW 2930 is a deep, muted olive-brown with an earthy yellow cast. Its low brightness gives it a grounded, shadowy presence, reading more brown in dim rooms and more olive where daylight brings out its green influence. Use it on a study, dining room, mudroom, or built-in cabinetry when a dark natural color feels more appropriate than charcoal. Marsh Fern pairs well with warm off-whites, aged brass, cognac leather, and medium-to-dark wood finishes. For contrast, add clay-toned accents or soft, warm beige textiles rather than crisp blue-white materials.

LRV of Marsh Fern
Marsh Fern has an LRV of 6.23% 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 6.23%, 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.
