Ivory Lustre vs Natural Beech

Ivory Lustre and Natural Beech come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Ivory Lustre belongs to the beige family and Natural Beech to the beige-yellow family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 77 vs 75 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Ivory Lustre leans red, Natural Beech reads yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 1.3 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
