Benjamin Moore

Sherwood Green

HC-118 / 439

Sherwood Green is a moderately saturated, cool-leaning green with a grayish sage quality that keeps it from reading too vivid. Its LRV of 43.09 places it at a middle reflectance point, so it holds color presence without feeling particularly dark or light. The slight gray undertone gives it a muted, natural character that shifts subtly depending on surrounding colors and light temperature.

It coordinates with Benjamin Moore Georgian Green for a tonal pairing, Saybrook Sage as an adjacent neutral green, Hale Navy for a deep complementary accent, Manchester Tan for warm contrast, and Timid White for low-contrast trim.
