Sherwin Williams

Pewter Green

SW 6208

Pewter Green is a Sherwin-Williams deep, muted green with cool gray undertones that reduce its saturation and give it a weathered, natural appearance. At an LRV of 12, it absorbs most light and reads as a dark tone, making it suitable for accent walls, exterior siding, cabinetry, and rooms where a low-light atmosphere is intentional. The gray component keeps it from appearing overtly green in lower light conditions.

Silver Strand and Sea Salt work as lighter cool companions, Warm Stone and Urbane Bronze add warmth, and Retreat and Evergreen Fog create tonal green continuity.
