What color is Sherwin Williams Violet Vignette?
Sherwin Williams Violet Vignette SW 7137 is a very light, muted blue-gray with a cool, airy cast. Its soft blue presence is more noticeable in daylight, while warm indoor lighting can make it read closer to a pale gray with a faint lavender-leaning haze. This shade is well suited to bedroom, bathroom, or home office walls where a light color is wanted without the starkness of bright white. Pair Violet Vignette with crisp white trim, weathered oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal accents for a clean, grounded contrast. It can also give cabinetry or a painted ceiling a subtle wash of cool color.

LRV of Violet Vignette
Violet Vignette has an LRV of 74.05% and refers to Off‑White 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 74.05%, 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.
