What color is Sherwin Williams Roycroft Bottle Green?

Sherwin Williams Roycroft Bottle Green SW 2847 is a deep, muted green with a charcoal-like cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its low saturation gives the color a slightly weathered, gray-green appearance, with a subtly cool feel in daylight. In lower light, Roycroft Bottle Green can read nearly black-green, making it especially effective for cabinetry, built-ins, doors, or a dramatic dining room wall. Pair it with warm off-whites, natural oak, worn leather, and aged brass to bring out its earthy side, or use crisp white trim for clearer contrast. On an exterior, this shade has enough depth for shutters or a front door against lighter siding or stone.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 4.6%, 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.
