Sherwin Williams

Kilkenny

SW 6740

Kilkenny SW 6473 is a rich earthy green with an LRV of 19, placing it in the lower-mid reflectance range with enough depth to anchor a room without reading as excessively dark. Its earthy quality comes from a slight yellow-brown component that keeps it grounded compared to cooler greens. It works well on exterior front doors, accent walls, and cabinetry in kitchens or mudrooms.

Kilkenny pairs naturally with Creamy SW 7012 for bright trim contrast, and coordinates with Rosemary SW 6187, Pewter Green SW 6208, Oyster Bay SW 6206, and Accessible Beige SW 7036.
