Sherwin Williams

Earthen Jug

SW 7703

Earthen Jug is a warm, mid-depth orange-brown with an LRV of 17, reflecting limited light and producing a rich, grounded appearance on walls. Its undertones lean toward burnt sienna rather than bright orange, giving it an earthy, terracotta-adjacent quality. This makes it well suited for accent walls, exterior shutters, or dining spaces where warmth and depth are functional goals.

It pairs naturally with Sherwin-Williams Copper Mountain, Armagnac, Cavern Clay, and Alabaster, where lighter neutrals provide necessary contrast against its low reflectance.
