Prescott Green vs Saybrook Sage
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Prescott Green belongs to the green-grey family and Saybrook Sage to the grey family. Prescott Green (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Saybrook Sage (LRV 45), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 6.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Prescott Green vs Saybrook Sage in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Prescott Green and Saybrook Sage are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Prescott Green will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Saybrook Sage would.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Prescott Green reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Saybrook Sage.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Prescott Green reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Saybrook Sage.
Front Door
A front door is a focal point — small color differences read clearly at this concentrated scale. The LRV gap is large enough that Prescott Green will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Saybrook Sage would.
Kitchen Cabinets
Kitchen cabinets are constantly compared against adjacent materials, which means subtle differences between these two become much more visible. Prescott Green reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Saybrook Sage.

Prescott Green vs Saybrook Sage Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Prescott Green on one side and Saybrook Sage on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
