Sherwin Williams

Concord Grape

SW 6559

Concord Grape by Sherwin-Williams is a deep, cool purple with blue undertones, registered at hex #443757. Its LRV of 5 makes it one of the darker options available, absorbing nearly all light and producing a heavily saturated appearance. The blue undertone pushes the hue away from a reddish-purple toward a cooler, more inky register.

It pairs with Sherwin-Williams Repose Gray as a neutral ground that moderates its intensity, while Iceberg or Misty can extend the cool tonal family. Introducing a warm accent like Blonde or Butter Up creates a temperature contrast that highlights the depth of the purple base.
