Hearthstone vs Oystershell

Hearthstone and Oystershell come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Hearthstone belongs to the grey family and Oystershell to the green-grey family. The 40-point LRV gap — 68 for Oystershell vs 27 for Hearthstone — means Oystershell will open up a space more effectively. Where Hearthstone leans blue, Oystershell reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 27.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
