Dunn-Edwards DE5539 translated into the Dutch Boy line
The closest Dutch Boy paint to Dunn-Edwards Fragile Fern (DE5539) is Kiara DCP-0005, a delta-E of 5.74 away — the closest Dutch Boy has, and far enough away that you should sample it before committing.
Kiara is 2.9 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as yellow undertone against yellow-green undertone, at chroma 7.5 and 11.8.
Codes are not transferable between manufacturers and no brand publishes a conversion table, so every figure here is measured from the published hex values rather than taken from a chart.
