What color is Sherwin Williams Shamrock?

Sherwin Williams Shamrock SW 6454 is a deep, blue-leaning green with a shaded, woodland character. Its low brightness gives it substantial visual weight, so it reads especially well on cabinetry, built-ins, doors, and accent walls rather than throughout a small, dim room. In bright natural light, Shamrock shows more of its green body, while evening light can make it appear darker and slightly cooler. Pair it with warm off-whites, natural oak, aged brass, or tan leather to bring out a pleasing contrast. For a more dramatic scheme, use this shade alongside charcoal, blackened bronze, and crisp white trim.

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 6.42%, 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.
