Sherwin Williams

Pewter Tankard

SW 0023

Sherwin-Williams' historic palette places Pewter Tankard SW 0023 in the midtone space between taupe and gray. That balance can connect gray stone to warmer wood more comfortably than a cool gray. Light cream provides contrast, and repeating the taupe in textiles produces a tonal result.
