The difference

Read from the numbers

Strand of Pearls is the lighter of the two at LRV 72.19, 17.1 points above Revere Pewter at LRV 55.05. Both read warm. Both belong to the beige family. For a whole room, Strand of Pearls is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Revere Pewter is the bolder pick.

How they read

In their own words

Strand of Pearls CSP-395 is a warm off-white neutral from Benjamin Moore's Color Stories collection. Benjamin Moore lists its LRV as 72.19, so it reflects most of the light in a room while still reading as a colour rather than a stark white.

Revere Pewter (HC-172) is Benjamin Moore's iconic greige — a warm gray-beige with a soft olive-green undertone. At LRV 55.5 it's slightly deeper than the popular Sherwin-Williams greiges, giving it more presence on a wall.
