Manor Blue vs Silver Fox

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Manor Blue reads as blue-grey, while Silver Fox reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Manor Blue (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than Silver Fox (LRV 44), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Manor Blue runs blue while Silver Fox is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 12.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
