In real rooms

Every room, each color

The difference

Read from the numbers

Mulberry Silk is the lighter of the two at LRV 20.43, 10.4 points above Cherry Cola at LRV 10. Both read warm. Both belong to the red family. For a whole room, Mulberry Silk is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Cherry Cola is the bolder pick.

How they read

In their own words

Cherry Cola is a deep reddish brown from Dunn-Edwards' Perfect Palette accents — the color of the drink held up to the light, with burnt sienna underneath. At LRV 10 it is dark, saturated and enormously flattering to books, brass and patterned fabric.

Mulberry Silk SW 0001 is a muted mauve-brown in Sherwin-Williams' Historic Color family, with an LRV of 20.43.
