Pewter Tankard vs Studio Clay

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Pewter Tankard (LRV 33) reflects noticeably more light than Studio Clay (LRV 27), a difference of 6 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 5.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
