Chinese Jade vs Treron

Chinese JadeBehrvsTreronFarrow & BallΔE 25.9Very different colors

Chinese Jade is a Behr color while Treron comes from Farrow & Ball. Chinese Jade reads as yellow, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 61 vs 25, Chinese Jade will read as the brighter of the two — a 36-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Chinese Jade's green character against Treron's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 25.9, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
