Sherwin Williams

Bold Brick

SW 6327

Bold Brick (hex #A0584F) is a warm, earthy red with deep clay undertones that root it firmly in the red-oxide family. With an LRV of 15, it absorbs most light, producing a dense, grounded surface tone well suited to rustic, industrial, or layered interior schemes. The muted red-brown base avoids the brightness of a true red, reading instead as terracotta-adjacent.

Sherwin-Williams Extra White provides sharp value contrast, while Copper Harbor and Fireweed extend the warm red tonal range. Accessible Beige and Intellectual Gray offer neutral support that tempers the color's depth.
