Chrome Green vs Clover paint color comparison

Chrome Green vs Clover

Chrome GreenBenjamin MoorevsCloverSherwin-WilliamsΔE 6.8Noticeable difference

Where Chrome Green belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Clover is a Sherwin-Williams color. Hue-wise, Chrome Green belongs to the green family and Clover to the blue family. Clover (LRV NaN) reflects noticeably more light than Chrome Green (LRV 7), a difference of NaN points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Chrome Green runs green while Clover is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 7 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Chrome Green vs Clover in Real Spaces

7 real rooms side by side. Chrome Green and Clover are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.

Dining Room

A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
