Farrow & Ball Blue Ground 210 on a wall, hex #A0C5CA

The closest Farrow & Ball paint to Vista Paint Tropical Sea (7416) is Blue Ground 210, a delta-E of 3.39 away — the nearest Farrow & Ball makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Blue Ground is 5.7 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as teal undertone against teal undertone, at chroma 13.0 and 12.3.

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.
