Sherwin Williams

Brassy

SW 6410

Brassy (SW, #9D8344) is a warm, golden yellow moderated by earthy brown undertones that pull it away from a clean yellow toward a mustard-adjacent range. With an LRV of 24, it sits in the lower-mid spectrum, absorbing a notable amount of light and producing a rich, dense appearance on walls. The earthy cast makes it read more subdued than a pure gold.

Redend Point and Roycroft Bronze Green offer contrasting depth alongside it, while analogous tones like Golden Fleece and Butternut maintain a warm, cohesive range. Refuge, a deep blue-green, provides a cool counterpoint.
