Sherwin Williams

Grape Mist

SW 6548

Grape Mist (SW 6548) is a soft, cool purple with gray undertones, carrying an LRV of 54, which places it in the light-to-mid range. Its restrained chromatic presence allows it to function as a full-room wall color in bedrooms, hallways, or living areas without overwhelming a space. The gray base keeps the purple subtle under most lighting conditions.

Silver Strand and Misty pair naturally for a quiet tonal scheme, while Naval and Tricorn Black provide sharp contrast on accents. Lite Lavender and Silver Peony extend the palette softly.
