Sherwin Williams

Napery

SW 6386

Napery is a soft warm yellow with beige undertones, registering an LRV of 74, which places it in the high-reflectance category suitable for whole-room use. It reads as a warm off-white with a subtle golden cast rather than a saturated yellow, making it practical for kitchens, dining rooms, and hallways. The beige undertone keeps it from appearing too lemony under cool lighting.

It works well with Alabaster (SW 7008) on trim, Ivoire (SW 6127) as a tonal wall match, Compatible Cream (SW 6387) for slight depth, and Jersey Cream (SW 6379) or Lucent Yellow (SW 6400) in adjacent spaces.
