Salisbury Green vs Sherwood Green

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Salisbury Green belongs to the green-grey family and Sherwood Green to the green-yellow family. Salisbury Green (LRV 46) reflects noticeably more light than Sherwood Green (LRV 43), a difference of 3 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 5.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate.

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