Sherwin Williams

Canyon Clay

SW 6054

Canyon Clay is a medium, earthy red with warm undertones and a muted, sunbaked character, identifiable by hex #85594F. At an LRV of 13, it absorbs most ambient light, producing a deep, enveloping effect suited to rooms that benefit from visual weight. The hue leans toward terracotta, grounded in the red-orange portion of the spectrum.

Sherwin-Williams Wool Skein and Canvas Tan work well to offset its intensity with lighter, warm neutrals. Urbane Bronze or Mount Etna introduce cooler, darker contrast, while analogous ochre tones build a layered, earth-driven palette.
