Coral FountainBehrvsMystic TulipCloverdale PaintΔE 6.0Noticeable difference

At ΔE 6.0, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

Digital color is approximate.

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