At LRV 72 vs 65, Just Walnut will read as the brighter of the two — a 7-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 5.6, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

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