Sherwin Williams

Coquina

SW 9158

Coquina (SW, #9D8D8E) is a muted purple with pronounced gray undertones, registering an LRV of 28. At this lower-mid reflectance, it reads as a complex, desaturated tone that sits between mauve and warm gray, with the purple character emerging most clearly under daylight. Its restrained chroma allows it to function as a deeper neutral rather than an overt color statement.

It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Lite Lavender and Silver Peony for a tonal purple-gray scheme. Eider White or Shoji White provide clean contrast as trim pairings, while Black Swan offers a dramatic darker accent.
