Sherwin Williams

Radish

SW 6861

Sherwin-Williams Radish is a bold, saturated red with slightly cool undertones that lean toward berry rather than orange-red. Its LRV of 10 places it in the low-reflectance range, meaning it absorbs most ambient light and reads as a strong, concentrated hue on walls. This color is commonly used on accent walls, in dining rooms, or on front doors where a pronounced red statement is desired.

Radish works well alongside Sherwin-Williams Silver Strand for a cool-toned pairing, Iron Ore for dark trim contrast, Coral Reef for analogous warmth, and Pure White or Alabaster for ceiling and trim separation.
