Sherwin Williams

Navel

SW 6887

Navel is a vibrant warm orange with red undertones that give it a bold, saturated presence on any surface. Its LRV of 35 places it in the lower-mid reflectance range, meaning it absorbs more light than it returns and reads with full intensity. This color is best used as an accent wall, on front doors, or in small doses within kitchens and playrooms where a strong focal point is desired.

It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Extra White, Caviar, and Rustic Red for controlled contrast.
