Trumpet is a pale yellow from Little Greene. As a premium paint, it’s a popular colour to seek out close matches and value-brand alternatives to.
Yellowcake by Farrow & Ball is the closest match from any other brand (close) — though it’s noticeably darker (about 11 LRV points), slightly cooler and noticeably softer. The closest value-tier option is Fresh Lemonade by Johnstone's (a loose match), noticeably darker (about 13 LRV points), noticeably cooler and noticeably softer. A cooler match reads cooler still in a north-facing room, where the light is indirect. No other brand gets within a near-identical match of Trumpet — it’s one of the more distinctive colours in the library, so expect a visible difference whichever you pick. LRV is estimated from each brand’s swatch, so order testers before committing.
