What color is Sherwin Williams Tassel?
Sherwin Williams Tassel SW 6369 is a warm, golden brown with a clear sunbaked ochre cast. Its medium depth gives it enough presence for a dining room, den, or entry wall without reading as overly dark. In bright daylight, Tassel can look more honeyed and golden, while lower or warmer lighting draws out its richer caramel-brown side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, muted olive greens, or deep charcoal accents for contrast. Natural oak, cognac leather, aged brass, and woven textures reinforce the shade’s earthy character.

LRV of Tassel
Tassel has an LRV of 30.25% 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 30.25%, 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.
