Royal Proclamation vs Obi Lilac

Royal Proclamation is a Cloverdale Paint color while Obi Lilac comes from Sherwin-Williams. Royal Proclamation reads as purple, while Obi Lilac reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins.

At ΔE 4.5, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. 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.
