Chanticleer vs Clover
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Chanticleer reads as pink-red, while Clover reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV NaN vs 5, Clover will read as the brighter of the two — a NaN-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Chanticleer's warm character against Clover's cool — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE NaN, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 10 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Chanticleer vs Clover in Real Spaces
10 real rooms side by side. Seeing Chanticleer and Clover in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Clover reads more restrained here, while Chanticleer adds a sense of enclosure and warmth.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The temperature contrast between Chanticleer and Clover is what sets these apart most in this context.
Kitchen
Kitchen lighting tends to be bright and directional, which sharpens contrast and makes undertone differences more apparent. The temperature contrast between Chanticleer and Clover is what sets these apart most in this context.
Dining Room
Dining room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. Chanticleer brings more warmth to the space, while Clover keeps things cooler and crisper.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The temperature contrast between Chanticleer and Clover is what sets these apart most in this context.
Home Office
In a home office, wall color sits in your peripheral vision for hours at a time, so temperature and undertone matter more than you might expect. The temperature contrast between Chanticleer and Clover is what sets these apart most in this context.
Mudroom
A mudroom color needs to hold up under the most casual scrutiny: a glance as you're coming and going, often in mixed or artificial light. Chanticleer brings more warmth to the space, while Clover keeps things cooler and crisper.
Patio
Patio colors are seen under changing outdoor light throughout the day — morning, midday, and golden hour each reveal different qualities. Chanticleer brings more warmth to the space, while Clover keeps things cooler and crisper.
House
At full exterior scale, the difference between these two colors becomes much easier to judge than from a small chip. The temperature contrast between Chanticleer and Clover is what sets these apart most in this context.
Front Door
Front doors are seen in isolation against the rest of the facade, which makes them a high-stakes surface where even subtle differences matter. Clover reads more restrained here, while Chanticleer adds a sense of enclosure and warmth.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Chanticleer on one side and Clover on the other.
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.
