How they read
In their own wordsChantilly Lace (OC-65) is the brightest, crispest white in Benjamin Moore's lineup, with an LRV around 90 and an almost-neutral undertone that carries only the faintest cool edge. It reads as a clean, pure white in nearly any light.
School House White No. 291 is, in Farrow & Ball's words, "pared back, timeless and familiar without the cool undertones of the more contemporary neutral groups". The brand says the soft off-white is reminiscent of the colour used in old school houses.
