Sherwin Williams

Inverness

SW 6433

Inverness SW 6433 is a deep green with yellow undertones that give it an earthy, olive-leaning character. Its LRV of 11 means it absorbs most ambient light, making it best applied in well-lit spaces such as studies, accent walls, or exterior doors where its depth can be appreciated. The yellow base keeps it from reading as a pure forest green.

It pairs well with Sherwin-Williams Dover White, Edamame, Urbane Bronze, and Anjou Pear. Under warm lighting the olive quality strengthens, while daylight reveals more of the true green pigment.
