Alexandrite

Sherwin-Williams Alexandrite (0060) carries the measured structure of its color data and the less predictable beauty of paint in a finished space. Its midtone saturation balances color with restraint, so the hue can register without overwhelming nearby finishes. The manufacturer's description below offers one reading; the room imagery leaves space for your own.
