Redcurrant Glory vs Treron
Redcurrant Glory (Dulux) and Treron (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Redcurrant Glory belongs to the pink-red family and Treron to the greige-grey family. The 12-point LRV gap — 25 for Treron vs 13 for Redcurrant Glory — means Treron will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 39.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Redcurrant Glory vs Treron in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Seeing Redcurrant Glory and Treron in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Treron reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Redcurrant Glory.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Treron returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Treron returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Dining Room
Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. The LRV gap is large enough that Treron will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Redcurrant Glory would.

Digital color is approximate.
