Sherwin Williams

Lacewing

SW 6729

Lacewing (SW 6729) is a soft muted green with gray undertones that reads as a pale, grayed-out sage on the wall. With an LRV of 74, it reflects a significant amount of light, making it functional in bedrooms, bathrooms, and transitional hallways. The gray base keeps it from reading too saturated, lending a quiet neutrality.

It coordinates well with Sherwin-Williams Evergreen Fog, Repose Gray, Alabaster, Sea Salt, and Oyster Bay, all of which share its restrained, cool-leaning character.
