SundewSherwin-WilliamsvsVintage GoldSherwin-WilliamsΔE 18.4Distinct difference

Sundew (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Vintage Gold (LRV 41), a difference of 22 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. With a ΔE of 18.4, the contrast is hard to miss.

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.
