Ebony Slate vs Wishing Well
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Ebony Slate belongs to the blue-grey family and Wishing Well to the purple family. Wishing Well (LRV 51) reflects noticeably more light than Ebony Slate (LRV 9), a difference of 42 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Ebony Slate runs blue and purple while Wishing Well is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 46.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
