Baroness vs Plum Blossom

BaronessSherwin-WilliamsvsPlum BlossomSherwin-WilliamsΔE 6.7Noticeable difference

Baroness and Plum Blossom come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Baroness belongs to the pink-purple family and Plum Blossom to the purple family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 28 vs 28 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Both share a cool character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 6.7 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. 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. 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.
