Jojoba vs Iron Ore
Where Jojoba belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Iron Ore is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. Jojoba (LRV 25) reflects noticeably more light than Iron Ore (LRV 6), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Jojoba runs green and yellow while Iron Ore is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 30.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
