How they read
In their own wordsCalke Green takes its name from the breakfast room at Calke Abbey in Derbyshire, and it has the settled, slightly faded quality of a color that has been on a wall for two hundred years. It is a mid-tone green with enough grey to stay calm and enough yellow to stay warm — the green of gardens rather than forests.
Saybrook Sage HC-114 is a mid-tone sage from Benjamin Moore's Historical Colors. Benjamin Moore describes it as "a soothing aloe hue cooled with a splash of gray", with an LRV of 45.46.
