Hearth Red vs Southwest Pottery
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Hearth Red belongs to the pink-red family and Southwest Pottery to the pink family. Southwest Pottery (LRV 17) reflects noticeably more light than Hearth Red (LRV 13), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
