What color is Sherwin Williams Tea Leaf?
Sherwin Williams Tea Leaf SW 9604 is a deep, muted brown with a noticeable gray cast and gentle warmth. Its low-saturation blend keeps it from reading overly red or orange, giving the color a grounded, earthy appearance. In bright daylight, Tea Leaf can show more of its softened brown character, while lower light brings out its charcoal-like depth. It makes a strong choice for a study, dining room, or moody bedroom wall, and can also give cabinetry a substantial, furniture-like finish. Pair it with creamy off-whites, weathered oak, black metal, and natural linen for contrast without making the room feel too sharp.

LRV of Tea Leaf
Tea Leaf has an LRV of 9.22% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 9.22%, 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.
