ArrasLittle GreenevsArtichokeSherwin-WilliamsΔE 33.0Very different colors

Arras is a Little Greene color while Artichoke comes from Sherwin-Williams. Arras reads as pink, while Artichoke reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
