Using Artkal S34 Red in a design

No other Artkal color is within ΔE 3. The nearest, Artkal SL3 Glitter Red, is ΔE 3.7 away (close), so a swap would show; buy enough Red for the whole design.
Across brands, Hama has the closest stand-in (Hama 13, ΔE 3.6) and Nabbi the furthest (Nabbi N19, ΔE 9.2). Nabbi's palette is small (30 colors), which limits its matches.
