Sage SplendorPPGvsArtichokeSherwin-WilliamsΔE 25.5Very different colors

Sage Splendor (PPG) and Artichoke (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Sage Splendor belongs to the yellow family and Artichoke to the grey family. The 33-point LRV gap — 54 for Sage Splendor vs 21 for Artichoke — means Sage Splendor will open up a space more effectively.

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.
