NaperonFarrow & BallvsPurbeck StoneFarrow & BallΔE 22.9Distinct difference

Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways.

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Purbeck Stone returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
