Sherwin Williams

Silken Peacock

SW 9059

Silken Peacock is a dark, cool blue-teal from Sherwin-Williams with a hex value of #427584 and an LRV of 15, meaning it absorbs most ambient light and reads as a deep, concentrated tone. Its undertones blend blue and green in roughly equal measure, producing a muted teal rather than a pure blue or green. This color is commonly used on accent walls in bedrooms, home offices, and powder rooms.

It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster for trim contrast, Greek Villa for ceilings, Oceanside for a tonal blue scheme, and Accessible Beige for adjacent walls.
