Sherwin Williams

Nuthatch

SW 6088

Nuthatch is a warm neutral with red undertones and an LRV of 19, making it a deeper-value color suited for accent walls, studies, or cabinetry where a grounded, earthy presence is needed. The red undertone keeps it from reading as flat brown, adding warmth that becomes more noticeable in natural daylight. It pairs well with Sherwin-Williams Shoji White, Macadamia, Cavern Clay, Urbane Bronze, and Pure White, enabling warm contrast-driven schemes.

At this low reflectance, adequate lighting is recommended to prevent the color from appearing overly heavy in smaller rooms.
