Amethyst Shadow vs Faded Violet
Amethyst Shadow and Faded Violet come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Both sit in the blue-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 11-point LRV gap — 29 for Faded Violet vs 18 for Amethyst Shadow — means Faded Violet will open up a space more effectively. Both share a blue character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 11.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate.
