Jamesboro Gold vs RAL 770-M paint color comparison

Jamesboro Gold vs RAL 770-M

Jamesboro GoldBenjamin MoorevsRAL 770-MRAL EffectΔE 6.8Noticeable difference

Jamesboro Gold is a Benjamin Moore color while RAL 770-M comes from RAL Effect. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. With LRVs of 24 and 24, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. At ΔE 6.8, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
