What color is Sherwin Williams Pewter Green?
Sherwin Williams Pewter Green SW 6208 is a muted, mid-dark green with a noticeable gray cast and an earthy olive lean. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading too leafy or bright, giving walls a grounded, slightly weathered appearance. In bright natural light, Pewter Green can show more of its green character, while lower light emphasizes its charcoal-gray side. It has enough depth for a dining room, study, or exterior siding, and it also makes a strong cabinet color when paired with light counters. Warm white trim, aged brass, natural oak, stone, and creamy beige textiles bring out the color’s subdued warmth.
LRV of Pewter Green
Pewter Green has an LRV of 11.83% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 11.83%, 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.
