JitneyFarrow & BallvsSetting PlasterFarrow & BallΔE 8.1Noticeable difference

Both are Farrow & Ball colors. Jitney reads as beige-greige, while Setting Plaster reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 58 vs 47, Setting Plaster will read as the brighter of the two — a 11-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 8.1, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 7 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Jitney vs Setting Plaster in Real Spaces

7 real rooms side by side. Jitney and Setting Plaster are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Setting Plaster returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
