Bosc Pear vs Mannered Gold

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Bosc Pear reads as beige, while Mannered Gold reads as beige-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Mannered Gold (LRV 34) reflects noticeably more light than Bosc Pear (LRV 32), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 5.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
