What color is Sherwin Williams Pottery Urn?
Sherwin Williams Pottery Urn SW 7715 is a muted, medium-depth clay brown with a clear warm cast. Its #aa866e color value reads as a softened blend of tan, dusty terracotta, and brown rather than a bright orange earth tone. In strong daylight, Pottery Urn can show more of its sunbaked beige and clay character, while lower light brings forward its deeper brown notes. It suits dining rooms, entryways, and living spaces where a grounded wall color is wanted, and it can also make a substantial cabinet or exterior trim choice. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm wood, aged brass, natural linen, and charcoal accents for contrast.
LRV of Pottery Urn
Pottery Urn has an LRV of 26.7% 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 26.7%, 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.
