Sherwin Williams

Enduring Bronze

SW 7055

Enduring Bronze is a deep brown with gray and olive undertones that keep it firmly in the warm-neutral family without appearing purely chocolate. At an LRV of 7, it is quite dark and best applied to accent walls, cabinetry, or exterior trim where contrast with lighter surfaces is available. It pairs effectively with Sherwin-Williams Natural Linen, Shoji White, Accessible Beige, Sawdust, and Urban Jungle, providing a range of lighter warm neutrals and complementary earth tones that balance its depth.

Enduring Bronze in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
