Feldspar vs Iron Ore
Feldspar (PPG) and Iron Ore (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Feldspar reads as blue-grey, while Iron Ore reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 21-point LRV gap — 27 for Feldspar vs 6 for Iron Ore — means Feldspar will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 30.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Feldspar vs Iron Ore Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Feldspar on one side and Iron Ore on the other.
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.
