Sherwin Williams

Slate Tile

SW 7624

Slate Tile is a dark blue-gray from Sherwin-Williams with noticeable green undertones, giving it a cool and muted character. With a Light Reflectance Value of 15, it absorbs most light and reads as a deep, grounding tone on walls. The green-blue shift distinguishes it from straight charcoal grays and places it in the slate family.

Due to its depth, it is commonly applied on accent walls, exterior siding, cabinetry, or in rooms where a darker enclosing effect is intended. It pairs well with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Shoji White, Storm Cloud, Softened Green, and Urbane Bronze.

Slate Tile in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
