Sherwin Williams

Greenbelt

SW 6927

Greenbelt is a vibrant cool-toned green with an LRV of 12, placing it firmly in the deep-value range best suited for accent walls, exterior doors, or cabinetry rather than full-room application. Its saturated, jewel-like depth carries minimal yellow influence, reading as a straightforward mid-cool green under balanced lighting. This shade pairs effectively with Sherwin-Williams Pure White, Shoji White, Dover White, and Urbane Bronze, while Basil provides a tonal companion for layered green schemes on trim or secondary surfaces.
