Cayman Islands vs Ammonite
Where Cayman Islands belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Ammonite is a Farrow & Ball color. Hue-wise, Cayman Islands belongs to the beige family and Ammonite to the beige-greige family. Ammonite (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Cayman Islands (LRV 66), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Cayman Islands runs red while Ammonite is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
