Its green, gray, and subtle blue undertones give it a chameleon quality that shifts throughout the day, feeling softer and more airy in bright natural light and deeper and moodier as the evening sets in. With an LRV of 30 it has real depth and presence, making it a stronger, richer choice than many other sage green colors.

Its subtle warmth comes from gentle yellow undertones that keep it from reading too cool or silvery, making it one of the more approachable and livable sage greens available. It shifts slightly throughout the day — greener and warmer in natural light, cooler and more gray as evening sets in — and pairs beautifully with warm whites like White Dove on trim, brass and gold accents, and natural wood tones for a palette that feels organic, calm, and quietly sophisticated.

4. Clary Sage SW 6178 Sherwin Williams
Clary Sage is a warm, muted sage green with subtle yellow and gray undertones that give it a grounded, earthy character without tipping into olive territory.
With an LRV of 41 it sits comfortably in the mid-tone range — deep enough to feel rich and intentional on the wall, but light enough to remain approachable and livable in most spaces. Its warmth makes it particularly well-suited to rooms with natural light, where it reads soft and herbal, though in cooler north-facing rooms the gray undertones come forward a little more.
It pairs beautifully with warm whites like Greek Villa on trim, light oak and pine furniture, and earthy accents in terracotta or beige for a palette that feels organic, calm, and timeless.

5. Silver Sage 506 Benjamin Moore
Silver Sage is a soft, muted green with delicate gray undertones and a subtle warmth from gentle yellow undertones that keep it from feeling cool or sterile.
With a high LRV of 63 it’s one of the lighter sage greens in this category, reflecting a generous amount of light and keeping spaces feeling airy and open. In natural daylight the green tones come alive with a fresh, almost ethereal quality, while in dimmer or artificial light it softens into something quieter and more subdued.
It pairs beautifully with warm whites like White Dove on trim, natural wood tones, and earthy accents in warm brown and muted green for a palette that feels calm, sophisticated, and effortlessly livable across living rooms, bedrooms, and bathrooms alike.

6. Sheraton Sage SW 0014 Sherwin Williams
Sheraton Sage is a deeper, moodier entry in the sage green family. It’s a muted, earthy green with warm yellow undertones and subtle gray notes that give it a grounded, sophisticated character.
With an LRV of around 24 it sits in the darker range, absorbing more light than it reflects and creating a cozy, enveloping atmosphere that feels rich and intentional rather than simply decorative. This is an important consideration — it’s best suited to rooms with good natural light, where its complex green-gray tones can fully come to life.
In dimmer spaces it will deepen and darken noticeably. It pairs beautifully with warm creamy whites like Alabaster on trim, natural wood tones, and earthy accents in warm neutrals and antique brass for a palette that feels timeless, refined, and deeply connected to the natural world.

7. Springfield Sage 510 Benjamin Moore
Springfield Sage is a deeper, more complex entry in Benjamin Moore’s sage green lineup. It’s a muted, earthy green with soft gray undertones and a touch of brown that gives it a quiet, grounded richness.
Benjamin Moore describes it simply as an olive green mellowed by brown, and that earthy quality is exactly what sets it apart from lighter, brighter sage options. With an LRV of around 23 it sits in the darker range, absorbing more light than it reflects and creating a cozy, enveloping atmosphere that rewards rooms with good natural light.
In well-lit spaces it reveals its complex green-gray character beautifully — in dimmer rooms it will read deeper and more olive. It pairs beautifully with warm whites like Simply White on trim, natural wood tones, and warm neutral accents for a palette that feels grounded, organic, and timelessly sophisticated.
