Agate Green vs Burma Jade

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Agate Green belongs to the green-grey family and Burma Jade to the green family. Burma Jade (LRV 40) reflects noticeably more light than Agate Green (LRV 34), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 9.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Agate Green vs Burma Jade in Real Spaces

House

Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Burma Jade reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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.
