Sherwin Williams

Gentle Grape

SW 9074

Gentle Grape is a soft cool purple with gray undertones, registering an LRV of 26 that keeps it in the medium range. The gray content mutes its violet character, making it workable in bedrooms, hallways, and transitional spaces without heavy saturation. Frosty White on trim and ceilings maintains brightness, while Silver Strand on adjacent walls introduces a complementary cool gray-green.

Naval adds depth as an accent color on furniture or built-ins, and Tricorn Black anchors the palette in hardware or fixtures. Sea Salt in adjoining rooms provides a soft tonal shift.
