Sherwin Williams

Ionic Ivory

SW 6406

Ionic Ivory is a soft warm yellow from Sherwin-Williams grounded by ivory undertones that keep it from reading too saturated. Its LRV of 74 makes it a strong light reflector, suitable for dining rooms, bedrooms, and transitional spaces where warmth without intensity is the goal. The yellow leans neutral rather than citrus, giving it broad compatibility with wood tones and stone finishes.

It pairs well with Accessible Beige SW 7036, Alabaster SW 7008, Dried Edamame SW 9122, Roycroft Suede SW 2842, and Downing Sand SW 2822.
