More about Pashmina
Pashmina is a warm, mid-tone taupe-greige at LRV 46 — a soft, sophisticated neutral with a gentle gray-brown depth that reads cozy and refined. It's the choice for a greige with real warmth and body, grounding a room without going dark or cold.
At this depth it can show its taupe warmth in good light and deepen in low light, so sample in place. It pairs with creamy whites and wood. Its near-identical Sherwin-Williams match is Outrigger.
