Sherwin Williams

Coral Bells

SW 6593

Coral Bells (hex #BB4B51) is a bold, saturated red with warm undertones that registers an LRV of 16, meaning it absorbs a significant amount of light and reads as a deep, assertive color on the wall. Its red base carries a slight dusty quality that keeps it from appearing overly bright. Coral Bells can be tempered with muted companions like Sherwin-Williams Comfort Gray or Sea Salt, while pairing it with Sherwin-Williams Peppercorn or Naval introduces strong tonal contrast.

Sherwin-Williams Alyssum provides a softer analogous transition within the same warm family.
