Dough vs Gentle Lamb

DoughTikkurilavsGentle LambValsparΔE 5.9Noticeable difference

Where Dough belongs to Tikkurila's range, Gentle Lamb is a Valspar color. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Dough (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Gentle Lamb (LRV 70), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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.
