Rustic PotteryPPGvsIron OreSherwin-WilliamsΔE 60.2Very different colors

Rustic Pottery (PPG) and Iron Ore (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Rustic Pottery reads as pink-red, while Iron Ore reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 22-point LRV gap — 28 for Rustic Pottery vs 6 for Iron Ore — means Rustic Pottery will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 60.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
