Amethyst Cream vs RAL 570-3

Amethyst CreamBenjamin MoorevsRAL 570-3RAL EffectΔE 7.0Noticeable difference

Amethyst Cream (Benjamin Moore) and RAL 570-3 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Amethyst Cream reads as purple, while RAL 570-3 reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 46 vs 45 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. ΔE 7.0 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Amethyst Cream vs RAL 570-3 in Real Spaces

1 real room side by side. Amethyst Cream and RAL 570-3 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. The distinction reads clearly at room scale, making the choice between them concrete.

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.
