Finley Blue vs Danube
Where Finley Blue belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Danube is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Finley Blue (LRV 22) reflects noticeably more light than Danube (LRV 16), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Finley Blue runs blue while Danube is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
