The 10-point LRV gap — 60 for Tea Light vs 50 for Aganthus Green — means Tea Light will open up a space more effectively. Both share a green character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 6.0 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

Aganthus Green vs Tea Light in Real Spaces

1 real room side by side. Aganthus Green and Tea Light are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Tea Light reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Aganthus Green.

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.
