What color is Sherwin Williams Pewter Tankard?
Sherwin Williams Pewter Tankard SW 0023 is a muted mid-tone gray-beige with a soft, earthy cast. Its #a39b90 color value gives it more warmth than a true neutral gray, with subtle taupe and weathered stone undertones rather than a crisp silver appearance. In bright daylight, Pewter Tankard can read as a light warm gray, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its beige-brown side. It suits living rooms, halls, and bedrooms where a grounded wall color is wanted without going noticeably dark. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, aged brass, natural oak, and linen or leather textures for a layered, lived-in interior.
LRV of Pewter Tankard
Pewter Tankard has an LRV of 33.14% 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 33.14%, 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.
