More about Saybrook Sage
Saybrook Sage is the classic, slightly deeper sage — a mid-tone muted green at LRV 46 with a timeless, almost colonial quality. Where October Mist is misty and soft, Saybrook Sage is a touch richer and more grounded, which makes it a strong exterior color as well as an interior one.
Its muted depth reads as a sophisticated neutral-green rather than a statement, and it pairs naturally with warm whites and stone. Behr Environmental is a near-identical match; Sherwin-Williams Cascade Green is in the same family.
