Etruria vs St. Bart's
Etruria (Little Greene) and St. Bart's (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 19 vs 18 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Etruria leans blue, St. Bart's reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 3.9 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

Etruria vs St. Bart's in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Etruria and St. Bart's 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.
Dining Room
Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.

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.
