Old Gold vs India Yellow
Where Old Gold belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, India Yellow is a Farrow & Ball color. Old Gold reads as beige, while India Yellow reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Old Gold (LRV 43) reflects noticeably more light than India Yellow (LRV 37), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Old Gold runs red while India Yellow is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
