Dewdrop vs Iron Ore
Where Dewdrop belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Iron Ore is a Sherwin-Williams color. Dewdrop reads as green-yellow, while Iron Ore reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Dewdrop (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Iron Ore (LRV 6), a difference of 71 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 62.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Dewdrop on one side and Iron Ore on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
