Antique White vs Opal

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Antique White belongs to the beige-white family and Opal to the beige family. Opal (LRV 84) reflects noticeably more light than Antique White (LRV 78), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 3.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
