Jasper vs Ruby Violet
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Jasper reads as green-grey, while Ruby Violet reads as grey-purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Ruby Violet (LRV 24) reflects noticeably more light than Jasper (LRV 4), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Jasper runs neutral while Ruby Violet is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 36.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
