Luxurious GoldBenjamin MoorevsIron OreSherwin-WilliamsΔE 66.1Very different colors

Luxurious Gold is a Benjamin Moore color while Iron Ore comes from Sherwin-Williams. Hue-wise, Luxurious Gold belongs to the beige-yellow family and Iron Ore to the grey family. At LRV 49 vs 6, Luxurious Gold will read as the brighter of the two — a 44-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Luxurious Gold's yellow character against Iron Ore's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 66.1, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
