Amber vs Tassel
Amber is a Benjamin Moore color while Tassel comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. At LRV 30 vs 27, Tassel will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Amber's red character against Tassel's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 4.1, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Amber vs Tassel in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Amber and Tassel 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
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Tassel has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Amber on one side and Tassel 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.
