Rural Green

SW 6418

Rural Green is a warm, earthy green with yellow undertones and a Light Reflectance Value of 23, placing it in the lower-mid reflectance range. At hex #8D844D, it reads as a muted olive-green with substantial warm content rather than a bright or saturated green. This depth makes it applicable for accent walls, cabinetry, or full-room use in well-lit kitchens, dining rooms, or studies.

Sherwin-Williams Pure White provides high-contrast trim pairing, Shagreen and Svelte Sage offer tonal green companions, and Rookwood Dark Green adds a deeper option within the same family.
