Gloriana is a pale yellow from Craig & Rose. As a premium paint, it’s a popular colour to seek out close matches and value-brand alternatives to.
Citron by Farrow & Ball is the closest match from any other brand (near-identical) — though it’s lighter (about 2 LRV points). The closest value-tier option is Tainted Gold by Johnstone's (very close), slightly cooler and slightly softer. A cooler match reads cooler still in a north-facing room, where the light is indirect. Only one of the 8 other brands manages a near-identical match, which makes Gloriana fairly distinctive. LRV is estimated from each brand’s swatch, so order testers before committing.
Below is every genuinely close match to Gloriana from the other eight brands — ranked purely by closeness, so where one brand has several near-misses, they all appear. For the single best match per brand, see the Gloriana colour page.
The nearest Dulux colour is Sunny Day (very close). It won’t be pixel-perfect, so order a tester before committing.
Of the close matches, Tainted Gold by Johnstone's is the best-value option (value, very close).
The list shows every genuinely close match from other brands, ranked nearest-first by perceptual colour difference — including several from one brand where they’re all close. Screens differ from paint on a wall, so treat these as a shortlist and always order tester pots.
