What color is Sherwin Williams Sable?
Sherwin Williams Sable SW 6083 is a deep, muted brown with a clear warm cast and a slightly earthy, softened appearance. Its #5f4b3f value gives it enough depth to read as a grounded neutral rather than a light tan, especially on broad wall areas. In bright natural light, the brown may appear a little more open and warm, while lower light brings out its richer, shadowed character. Sable is well suited to a study, dining room, den, or a powder room where a darker wall color can feel intentional rather than heavy. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm beige textiles, aged brass, walnut, and natural leather for a layered, material-focused look. It can also make cabinetry, interior doors, or an exterior accent feel substantial against lighter surrounding finishes.
LRV of Sable
Sable has an LRV of 7.85% 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 7.85%, 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.
