Sherwin Williams

Kingdom Gold

SW 6698

Kingdom Gold is a warm yellow with rich golden undertones and an LRV of 41, giving it moderate light reflectance with substantial depth. It reads as a saturated, earthy gold rather than a bright lemon, making it suitable for dining rooms, studies, or entryways where warmth without excessive brightness is desired. The golden base keeps it from trending toward green or orange in changing light conditions.

Coordinate it with Sherwin-Williams Dover White for trim, and consider pairing with Anjou Pear, Olde World Gold, Downing Straw, and Crispy Gold for a cohesive warm scheme.

Kingdom Gold in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
