Sherwin Williams

Spinach White

SW 6434

Spinach White is a light, desaturated green-gray with cool undertones, carrying an LRV of 79, which means it reflects a high amount of light and reads as a near-neutral in most rooms. Its hex value #E4E8DA reveals a faint sage-green cast that becomes more apparent next to pure whites. This color functions well in kitchens, bathrooms, or living areas where a quiet green tone is preferred.

It pairs with Sherwin-Williams Softened Green for tonal layering, Svelte Sage for depth, Snowbound for trim contrast, Iron Ore for dark accents, and Evergreen Fog for a botanical grouping.
