Ancient Oak vs RAL 120-6
Where Ancient Oak belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 120-6 is a RAL Effect color. Ancient Oak reads as beige-yellow, while RAL 120-6 reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. RAL 120-6 (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Ancient Oak (LRV 73), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
