Crushed Silk vs Purity
Both from PPG's palette. Crushed Silk reads as beige-greige, while Purity reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Purity (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Crushed Silk (LRV 63), a difference of 17 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 9.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate.
