Sherwin Williams

Edgy Gold

SW 6409

Edgy Gold is a deep, warm gold with prominent brown and amber undertones, carrying an LRV of 32. Its muted saturation places it in the mid-dark range, making it suitable for accent walls, studies, or dining rooms where a rich but subdued warmth is desired. It pairs effectively with Sherwin-Williams Toasty, Latte, Balanced Beige, and Urban Putty.

In north-facing rooms, the brown undertone becomes more dominant, while south-facing light draws out its golden quality.
