Nettle vs Roycroft Brass

NettleSherwin-WilliamsvsRoycroft BrassSherwin-WilliamsΔE 7.0 — Noticeable difference

Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. At LRV 15 vs 11, Roycroft Brass will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 7.0, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
