Beguiling Mauve vs Shantung
Beguiling Mauve is a Sherwin-Williams color while Shantung comes from Tikkurila. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. At LRV 45 vs 40, Shantung will read as the brighter of the two — a 5-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 4.4, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
