Sherwin Williams

Oak Leaf Brown

SW 7054

Oak Leaf Brown is a neutral brown with gray and green undertones and an LRV of 10, making it a low-reflectance color best used for accent applications, cabinetry, or exterior trim. The gray-green undertone prevents it from pulling too warm, giving it an earthy, bark-like quality that distinguishes it from standard chocolate browns. It pairs cleanly with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Dried Thyme, Intellectual Gray, Pewter Green, and Dover White, supporting nature-influenced palettes.

Adequate ambient or task lighting is important at this depth to maintain its nuanced undertone character in interior use.
