Copper Kettle vs Flickering Flame
Where Copper Kettle belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Flickering Flame is a Cloverdale Paint color. Copper Kettle reads as beige-pink, while Flickering Flame reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Flickering Flame (LRV 21) reflects noticeably more light than Copper Kettle (LRV 16), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
