Silken Blue vs Williamsburg Wythe Blue
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Silken Blue belongs to the blue-grey family and Williamsburg Wythe Blue to the blue family. Silken Blue (LRV 41) reflects noticeably more light than Williamsburg Wythe Blue (LRV 33), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
