Sherwin Williams

Chinchilla

SW 6011

Chivalry Copper (#D4966E) is a warm, earthy orange with moderate saturation and clear amber-brown undertones. At an LRV of 37, it sits in the mid-tone range, delivering noticeable warmth without excessive brightness. The hue leans toward a muted terracotta rather than a vivid orange, making it manageable on larger surfaces.

Sherwin-Williams White Sand and Natural Tan pair cleanly as lighter warm neutrals, while Urbane Bronze and Rookwood Dark Red offer deeper contrast. Analogous tones like Coral Reef and Peach Blossom soften the transition into surrounding colors.

Chinchilla in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
