Maiden Mist vs Topaz

Maiden MistPPGvsTopazTikkurilaΔE 1.8Subtle difference

Maiden Mist is a PPG color while Topaz comes from Tikkurila. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. With LRVs of 52 and 51, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.8, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
