Chowning's Tan

CW-195

Chowning's Tan is a rich tan with yellow-ochre undertones. With an LRV of 26.81, it reads medium-deep and can look denser in low light. It fits traditional rooms, hallways, or dining areas where a historic tan is appropriate.

White Dove and Revere Pewter keep the scheme neutral and warm. Hale Navy or Hunter Green add depth, and Silver Satin can lighten adjacent rooms.
