Pewter Green Sherwin-Williams · SW 6208 LRV 21
Pewter Green review: Sherwin-Williams SW 6208
muted olive-green.
A deep, muted green best used the way Iron Ore is used: cabinets, a front door, or a single accent wall, rather than a whole bright room.
Pewter Green in real light
Same sample board, four compass directions: this is the standardized shot list every color on this site gets, so you can compare across colors and not just across one photographer's living room. Photos for this color are still being shot; the notes below are what to expect from the color's undertone.
North light North light amplifies Pewter Green's cool or green cast; expect the truest read of its undertone here, for better or worse.
East light Morning east light is warm and golden, so Pewter Green looks brightest and warmest early in the day, then cools and flattens by afternoon as the light moves west.
South light South light is bright and warm most of the day, which can soften Pewter Green's cooler undertone without erasing it.
West light Afternoon west light is warm and can run intense right at sunset, then goes flat and cool in the morning before the sun reaches that side of the house.
What to pair Pewter Green with
- Brass hardware and cream trim, which lift its muted olive
- Warm wood built-ins for a library or study feel
