Green JewelSherwin-WilliamsvsKiwiSherwin-WilliamsΔE 11.0Distinct difference

Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. With LRVs of 60 and 58, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. They share a cool quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 11.0, 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
