How they read
In their own wordsGrays Harbor is a deep slate blue-grey from Sherwin-Williams, with green undertones that keep it from feeling icy. At LRV 12 it is dark enough to anchor a room and soft enough to live with every day.
Stiffkey Blue is Farrow & Ball's deep, inky navy — named for the Norfolk village whose beach mud takes on this colour at low tide. It is traditional in spirit but reads modern next to Down Pipe, with just enough grey to stop it looking like a school uniform.
