Rubine AshesLittle GreenevsMirageTikkurilaΔE 1.1Subtle difference

Where Rubine Ashes belongs to Little Greene's range, Mirage is a Tikkurila color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (62 vs 62), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. At ΔE 1.1, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
