Aurora Borealis vs Chatty Cricket
Where Aurora Borealis belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Chatty Cricket is a PPG color. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. Chatty Cricket (LRV 39) reflects noticeably more light than Aurora Borealis (LRV 35), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate.
