Serengeti Sand vs Pottery Urn
Where Serengeti Sand belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Pottery Urn is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Serengeti Sand (LRV 30) reflects noticeably more light than Pottery Urn (LRV 27), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Serengeti Sand runs red while Pottery Urn is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
