Sherwin Williams

Rice Paddy

SW 6414

Rice Paddy is a muted yellow from Sherwin-Williams with green undertones that give it a slightly herbaceous quality. It has a Light Reflectance Value of 66, placing it in the upper-mid brightness range and reflecting a good amount of ambient light. The green undertone distinguishes it from pure warm yellows and prevents it from reading as overly saturated.

It suits kitchens, sunrooms, and cottage-style interiors. Rice Paddy coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Livable Green and Filmy Green in analogous groupings, Alabaster or Pure White as trim, and Dovetail for deeper contrast.
