How they read
In their own wordsFresh Olive 2149-30 is part of Benjamin Moore's Color Preview collection, which Benjamin Moore describes as "a dark, earthy ochre with distinctive green and yellow tones." Benjamin Moore files it under yellow and gives an LRV of 30.13.
Olive Colour is one of Little Greene's Colours of England — a deep, muted yellow-green olive with a history: the brand quotes Mrs Delany, who in the 1700s 'painted her room a sort of olive green for her pictures'. It is rich, earthy and remarkably good behind art.
