Sherwin Williams

Mossy Gold

SW 6139

Mossy Gold is a warm muted yellow with earthy undertones, sitting at an LRV of 15, which positions it as a deeper accent tone rather than a full-room color in smaller spaces. The earthy base pulls it toward ochre territory, reducing any brightness typically associated with yellows. It reads well on cabinetry, built-in shelving, or exterior trim.

Sherwin-Williams Creamy, Urbane Bronze, Compatible Cream, Roycroft Suede, and Alabaster offer reliable coordination without competing for warmth in the same palette.

Mossy 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.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
