Pine Grove vs Skimming Stone
Where Pine Grove belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Skimming Stone is a Farrow & Ball color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Skimming Stone (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Pine Grove (LRV 19), a difference of 49 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Pine Grove runs yellow while Skimming Stone is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 38.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
