Coriander Seed vs Skimming Stone
Where Coriander Seed belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Skimming Stone is a Farrow & Ball color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Skimming Stone (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Coriander Seed (LRV 23), a difference of 45 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Coriander Seed runs red while Skimming Stone is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 33.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
