Grizzle Gray

SW 7068

Grizzle Gray is a deep cool gray with green undertones, carrying an LRV of 13. The green influence is moderate, distinguishing it from purely neutral dark grays and giving it a slightly organic quality visible under daylight. It works well for accent walls, exterior siding, cabinetry, and built-in shelving where a substantial dark neutral is needed.

Under warm artificial light the green cast softens. Grizzle Gray coordinates effectively with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Pure White, Repose Gray, and Agreeable Gray, and pairs tonally with Pewter Green.
