Dibber vs RAL 770-M
Where Dibber belongs to Farrow & Ball's range, RAL 770-M is a RAL Effect color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. RAL 770-M (LRV 24) reflects noticeably more light than Dibber (LRV 18), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
