Limestone vs Sail Cloth

LimestoneBenjamin MoorevsSail ClothBenjamin MooreΔE 5.4 — Noticeable difference

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Limestone belongs to the beige-yellow family and Sail Cloth to the beige family. Sail Cloth (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Limestone (LRV 66), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Limestone runs yellow while Sail Cloth is decidedly yellow and red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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.
