Silt vs Carriage Stone
Where Silt belongs to Little Greene's range, Carriage Stone is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the greige-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Silt (LRV 21) reflects noticeably more light than Carriage Stone (LRV 18), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Silt runs red while Carriage Stone is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
