Sherwin Williams

Ceremonial Gold

SW 6382

Ceremonial Gold (hex #D69E59) is a rich, warm orange with a pronounced golden undertone, registering an LRV of 39, which places it in the mid-tone range with moderate light absorption. The saturated warmth in this shade lends itself to use in living rooms, dining areas, or as an accent in traditional and eclectic interiors. It pairs well with deep contrasting colors such as Sherwin-Williams Naval and Bunglehouse Blue, which emphasize its golden character.

For a more tonal approach, Roycroft Copper Red and Rookwood Terra Cotta sit in a similar warm family, while Natural Linen provides a quieter neutral counterpoint.
