What color is Sherwin Williams Spiced Cider?
Sherwin Williams Spiced Cider SW 7702 is a muted, medium-depth clay brown with clear warm orange and rosy undertones. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading as bright terracotta, giving walls a grounded, earthy presence instead. In bright daylight, this color can show more of its warm baked-sienna cast, while lower light may bring out its deeper brown side. Spiced Cider suits dining rooms, entryways, and cozy living spaces, and it also makes a strong choice for an accent wall or painted cabinetry. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, blackened metal, and medium-to-dark natural woods for a layered, material-rich look.

LRV of Spiced Cider
Spiced Cider has an LRV of 23.44% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 23.44%, 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.
