Sherwin Williams

Inviting Ivory

SW 6372

Inviting Ivory is a soft warm ivory from Sherwin-Williams carrying a distinct orange undertone that lends it a sun-warmed quality. With an LRV of 70, it reflects a generous amount of light while maintaining enough depth to avoid washing out in bright rooms. It works well in living rooms, hallways, and kitchens where warm ambient light is desired.

For a cohesive palette, consider pairing it with Accessible Beige SW 7036, Antique White SW 6119, Renwick Golden Oak SW 2824, Cavern Clay SW 7701, and Toasty SW 6095.
