What color is Sherwin Williams Tarnished Trumpet?
Sherwin Williams Tarnished Trumpet SW 9026 is a muted golden tan with soft ochre and sandy beige undertones. Its mid-light depth keeps it from reading overly yellow, giving walls a grounded warmth rather than a bright gold effect. In sunlit rooms, Tarnished Trumpet can show more of its honeyed cast, while lower or cooler light may make it appear quieter and more khaki-beige. It suits dining rooms, entryways, and living spaces where natural wood, aged brass, woven fibers, and cream upholstery are part of the palette. Pair this shade with warm off-whites, deep olive greens, clay browns, or charcoal accents for contrast.

LRV of Tarnished Trumpet
Tarnished Trumpet has an LRV of 47.12% 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 47.12%, 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.
