Cathedral GlassPPGvsMorning at SeaSherwin-WilliamsΔE 3.5Noticeable difference

Where Cathedral Glass belongs to PPG's range, Morning at Sea is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the blue-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (29 vs 29), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. The ΔE 3.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
