What the numbers mean: ΔE 0.6 is in the “virtually identical” band (up to 2.0, a difference that is hard to see even side by side). Lightness (L*) differs by 0.6 and chroma by 1.5; the hue angles are 0.0° apart. None of these differences is large enough to name a direction, so the two read alike in lightness, saturation and warmth.
