Ionic Column vs Natural Wicker
Where Ionic Column belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Natural Wicker is a Dulux color. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Natural Wicker (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Ionic Column (LRV 70), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Ionic Column runs red while Natural Wicker is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
