Sherwin Williams

Ancient Marble

SW 6162

Ancient Marble (hex #D1CCB9) is a soft, muted green carrying gray and beige undertones that keep it in cool-neutral territory. With an LRV of 60, it offers moderate-to-high reflectance, functioning well in rooms with limited natural light as well as brighter spaces. Its low chroma and green-beige balance prevent it from reading overtly green, placing it closer to a warm sage-tinged neutral.

It pairs effectively with Sherwin-Williams Softened Green and Escape Gray for a tonal palette, Snowbound or Pure White for crisp trim contrast, and deeper dried-herb greens for added dimension.
