They are darn close but i can see the variation, so yes.

No because that degree of variation will occur based on the light in the room, which plane you are painting, etc. It is false precision to pick one over the other.

When i was painting my K island, I was taking a photo and then my dog walked by and the color changed.

If Farrow & Ball named them:

1. Vintage Bagged Lettuce Sludge

2. November Toe Jam

3. Dehydrated Rock Moss

I think two of them may actually be the same, because sometimes the Historic Colors, which aren't part of a strip of varying tint or shade, will show up as another number or name on that sort of strip.

I agree that no one would really be able to tell the difference if a room were painted in one of these and not the other, and you didn't have swatches to compare.

I am still on my monochrome kick where X has to work with Y has to work with Z in a tightly correlated way, and this is my second set of samples to try and go with something else I am using.

The first set of three all skew kind of blue-cast in the Samplize swatches, which are real paint and large size. They seemed great on the chips, but off in the big samples. And the room gets blasted with sun at certain times of day so it has to be right.

I love that color. It looks good on me (in case you were going to invite me over). It will look nice with Gscience's new car, too.

Oh! That's a game I like to play with my DH. "Honey. Which of these greens do you like the best?" And then watch his face contort as he tries to discern a difference between them so he can comment without hurting my feelings.

I ssuppose that, if you had an eye and awareness for such things, you could use them on different walls or even areas of walls (like corners) in an effort for consistent color in a room.

Mariette Himes Gomez, I have heard uses multiple shades of a color to achieve a very flat uniform single shade throughout a whole room, which may mean a different white for each of the walls and ceiling, so five in one room.

On my Ipad, the left sample is noticeably darker which to me coud make a significant difference on four walls. It would work well if going for a dark. moody look. Not a significant difference in the other two....the middle slightly lighter... would not show up if either was used on Walls.

To my eye the first and third are either the same or remarkably similar. The second swatch is the odd one, it has a grayish cast—- which of course could have bren caused by that swatch being held at a slightly different angle than the other two. I’d have to see them all in person, in natural light, to answer your question properly.

Back in the 80's in my peach days - I used a Peach colour (don't remember the name but it was a BM colour) on my west-facing vaulted ceiling living room and dining room. The differences in colour ranged from pink to orange depending on the corner of the room and which wall. It would have taken an artist and I don't know how many different colours to create a room that was definitively all one colour.

Unless you have it lined up incorrectly (i.e the left side is back) the left side is definitely a darker colour and deserves it's own name/number, the two on the right side look the same.

I had Army fatigues close to these colors, but I still like your swatches. Looks more like onlly two colors on my laptop.

I like them, too, I’m a big fan of this tone of green. Am this close to ordering an olive green velvet sofa.

(I should’ve clarified I was making fun of F & B paint names, not the colors themselves.)

On my monitor, the first looks a bit darker, but I can’t see much difference between 2 and 3.

You better show us ”afters” sometime. Don’t make me come up there. I will!

I see more variations within each square than I do among the squares themselves.

Love that color! On my screen, I think it looks like two colors.
Years ago, I had a color consultant (truly talented) and he told me that with some clients he did use a slightly different shade on each wall and the ceiling to achieve consistency in the perceived overall color.
