Antiqued Aqua vs Sea Emerald
Where Antiqued Aqua belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Sea Emerald is a Jotun color. Hue-wise, Antiqued Aqua belongs to the blue family and Sea Emerald to the blue-grey family. Antiqued Aqua (LRV 32) reflects noticeably more light than Sea Emerald (LRV 26), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Antiqued Aqua runs green and blue while Sea Emerald is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
