Verdigris vs RAL 740-M
Where Verdigris belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 740-M is a RAL Effect color. These are both blue-greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-green to land. Verdigris (LRV 17) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 740-M (LRV 11), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 9.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

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.
