Clover vs Pewter Green
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Clover reads as blue, while Pewter Green reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pewter Green (LRV 12) reflects noticeably more light than Clover (LRV NaN), a difference of NaN points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Clover runs cool while Pewter Green is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of NaN, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 10 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Clover vs Pewter Green in Real Spaces
10 real rooms side by side. Seeing Clover and Pewter Green in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The temperature contrast between Pewter Green and Clover is what sets these apart most in this context.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Pewter Green brings more warmth to the space, while Clover keeps things cooler and crisper.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Pewter Green brings more warmth to the space, while Clover keeps things cooler and crisper.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Clover reads more restrained here, while Pewter Green adds a sense of enclosure and warmth.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Pewter Green brings more warmth to the space, while Clover keeps things cooler and crisper.
Home Office
The test for a home office color isn't how it looks in a quick glance — it's whether it still feels right after a full day of work. Pewter Green brings more warmth to the space, while Clover keeps things cooler and crisper.
Mudroom
Mudrooms are seen in passing, often under whatever light comes through the door — a context that favors colors with some depth. Clover reads more restrained here, while Pewter Green adds a sense of enclosure and warmth.
Patio
Outside, paint color competes with sky, landscaping, and direct sun — all of which shift how both of these read compared to an indoor chip. Clover reads more restrained here, while Pewter Green adds a sense of enclosure and warmth.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Pewter Green brings more warmth to the space, while Clover keeps things cooler and crisper.
Front Door
A front door is a focal point — small color differences read clearly at this concentrated scale. The temperature contrast between Pewter Green and Clover is what sets these apart most in this context.

Clover vs Pewter Green Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Clover on one side and Pewter Green on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
