Copper Patina vs Ammonite
Where Copper Patina belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Ammonite is a Farrow & Ball color. Copper Patina reads as blue-green, while Ammonite reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Ammonite (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Copper Patina (LRV 61), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Copper Patina runs green while Ammonite is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 16.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
