L439TikkurilavsNephriteTikkurilaΔE 4.5Noticeable difference

Both are Tikkurila colors. L439 reads as blue-grey, while Nephrite reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins.

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.
