What color is Sherwin Williams Sawgrass Basket?
Sherwin Williams Sawgrass Basket SW 9121 is a muted, mid-light tan with a noticeable golden-beige cast. Its low-key, earthy color reads warm without becoming strongly yellow, giving walls a softened sand or natural-fiber appearance. In bright daylight, the beige and ochre notes are clearer, while lower or warmer lighting can bring out its deeper khaki-brown side. Sawgrass Basket suits living rooms, bedrooms, and entryways where wood furniture, woven textures, linen, and aged brass are part of the palette. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm charcoal, clay-toned accents, or medium natural oak for a grounded interior scheme.

LRV of Sawgrass Basket
Sawgrass Basket has an LRV of 44.78% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 44.78%, 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.
