What color is Sherwin Williams Oliva Oscuro?
Sherwin Williams Oliva Oscuro SW 9125 is a deep, muted brown with a noticeable olive-khaki cast and low, earthy saturation. Its warm base keeps it from reading black or gray, while the subdued green-brown undertone gives it more character than a standard dark neutral. In warm artificial light, this color can appear richer and more brown-forward; cooler daylight may bring out its restrained olive quality. Use Oliva Oscuro on cabinetry, a study wall, or exterior trim where its depth can anchor lighter surrounding finishes. It pairs well with creamy off-whites, weathered wood, clay-toned textiles, aged brass, and charcoal accents.

LRV of Oliva Oscuro
Oliva Oscuro has an LRV of 9.47% 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 9.47%, 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.
