Stone vs Ammonite

StoneBenjamin MoorevsAmmoniteFarrow & BallΔE 32.7Very different colors

Where Stone belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Ammonite is a Farrow & Ball color. Stone reads as grey, while Ammonite reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Ammonite (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Stone (LRV 24), a difference of 45 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Stone runs red while Ammonite is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 32.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. 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.
