Sherwin Williams

Kimono Violet

SW 6839

Kimono Violet is a deep purple with gray undertones that registers an LRV of 6, placing it firmly in the dark end of the spectrum. This saturated, low-light color works well as an accent wall in bedrooms or formal dining rooms where a grounded, dramatic backdrop is needed. Its gray cast prevents it from reading overly vivid, lending a muted sophistication.

For contrast, pair it with Sherwin-Williams Pure White, or complement it with Beguiling Mauve, Sensitive Tint, Gris Morado, and Darkroom for a cohesive tonal scheme.
