Sherwin Williams

Gold Crest

SW 6670

Gold Crest is a vibrant yellow with golden and orange undertones, registering an LRV of 39 in the moderate reflectance range. Its warm, saturated quality makes it effective for accent walls, front doors, or dining spaces where a concentrated warmth anchors the room. It coordinates naturally with Honey Bees and Butternut for a layered tonal scheme that moves from bright to deep gold.

Urbane Bronze provides a sophisticated dark contrast, Tricorn Black adds sharp definition on trim or hardware, and Alabaster balances the palette with a clean, neutral white.
