Mizzle vs Rivers Edge
Where Mizzle belongs to Farrow & Ball's range, Rivers Edge is a Sherwin-Williams color. Mizzle reads as grey, while Rivers Edge reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Rivers Edge (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Mizzle (LRV 52), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
