Sherwin Williams

Moss Rose

SW 6291

Moss Rose is a muted red with gray undertones that temper its warmth considerably, giving it a dusty, subdued character. With an LRV of 20, it absorbs moderate light and works as an accent or feature color in bedrooms, studies, or powder rooms. The gray undertone prevents it from reading as overly saturated, keeping the tone restrained under most lighting conditions.

It coordinates naturally with Sherwin-Williams Repose Gray, Eider White, Peppercorn, Agreeable Gray, and Chesapeake for layered neutral-warm schemes.
