Sherwin Williams

Basket Beige

SW 6143

Basket Beige from Sherwin-Williams is a warm, yellow-based neutral with soft golden undertones that distinguish it from cooler beige options. Its LRV of 42 places it in the mid-range of light reflectance, providing enough depth for definition without darkening a room significantly. The hex #C0A98B confirms a sandy, warm-toned beige suited to traditional and transitional interiors on walls, cabinetry, or millwork.

Layering it with other warm neutrals like Wool Skein, Nomadic Desert, or Softer Tan produces a tonal, cohesive scheme. For grounding contrast, deeper accents such as Urbane Bronze or Rookwood Dark Green balance its warmth effectively.
