What color is Sherwin Williams Raisin?
Sherwin Williams Raisin SW 7630 is a near-black shade with a muted red-brown cast that keeps it from reading like plain charcoal. Its low saturation gives it a softened, earthy appearance, while the slight warmth can show more clearly in direct daylight or warm lamp light. In dim rooms, Raisin may appear almost black, making it especially effective for accent walls, interior doors, built-ins, or dramatic cabinetry. Pair it with warm ivory, dusty blush, aged brass, walnut, or natural linen to bring out its understated wine-toned depth.

What are Sherwin Williams Raisin undertones?
Raisin is a deep, very muted wine-brown. The HEX sample has a subtle pink-red bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear pink-red. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Raisin
Raisin has an LRV of 2.79% 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 2.79%, 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.
