Sherwin Williams

Chamois

SW 6131

Chamois (hex #AD8451) is a warm, earthy yellow-brown with a noticeable brown undertone that grounds it firmly in the amber-ochre family. With an LRV of 26, it absorbs a substantial amount of light, producing an intimate, enclosed feel in interior spaces. It fits well within rustic, traditional, or Mediterranean-influenced design schemes, particularly in dining rooms and bedrooms.

Sherwin-Williams Accessible Beige, Nomadic Desert, and Navajo White extend the warm tonal range in a cohesive direction. Rookwood Dark Red and Black Fox provide deeper counterpoints that emphasize its rich, earthy warmth.
