Sherwin Williams

Wondrous Blue

SW 6807

Wondrous Blue is a soft, cool-toned blue from Sherwin-Williams that carries subtle purple undertones, giving it a slightly violet-leaning cast. With an LRV of 59, it reflects a moderate-to-high amount of light and reads as a pale, airy blue on walls. This positions it well for use in bedrooms, bathrooms, or coastal-themed interiors where a light blue is desired without high saturation.

It coordinates effectively with Sherwin-Williams Ice Cube for a near-white pairing, North Star for a tonal blue-gray step, Requisite Gray for warm contrast, and Naval as a deep accent color.
