How they read
In their own wordsKashmir is a Lime Wash colour from Portola Paints & Glazes in Los Angeles, which describes it simply as a "perfectly balanced old world white". It is also available as colour-matched paint for ceilings, doors and trim.
White Dove (OC-17) is Benjamin Moore's most-specified soft white — warm, but with a subtle gray-green base that keeps it from going yellow. At LRV 83 it's bright enough to act as a white on walls and trim, yet soft enough to never feel stark.
