Cocktail Hour vs Chinese Lantern
Where Cocktail Hour belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Chinese Lantern is a PPG color. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Cocktail Hour (LRV 46) reflects noticeably more light than Chinese Lantern (LRV 37), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
