Sherwin Williams

Cerise

SW 6580

Cerise (hex #99324E) is a deep, saturated red with a strong magenta undertone, carrying an LRV of 10, which means it absorbs a significant amount of light and reads as a heavy, high-impact color. Its intensity makes it well suited for accent walls or contained applications in contemporary interiors. Pairing Cerise with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster or Agreeable Gray offsets its depth with neutral balance.

Deep greens like Secret Garden or the dark navy of Naval offer strong complementary contrast, while Coral Reef and Heartfelt provide analogous warmth within the same red-pink family.
