Using Artkal SN1 Neon Orange in a design
Against Artkal S13 Black the contrast is 5.3:1 (a clear edge) and against Artkal S01 White 2.3:1, so Neon Orange pops on dark backgrounds and is a gentle tint on light ones.
No other Artkal color is within ΔE 3. The nearest, Artkal S97 Papaya, is ΔE 6.4 away (similar), so a swap would show; buy enough Neon Orange for the whole design.
Across brands, Perler has the closest stand-in (Perler Orange, ΔE 4.2) and Nabbi the furthest (Nabbi N13, ΔE 7.0). Nabbi's palette is small (30 colors), which limits its matches.
The name says neon: that finish changes how the bead reads in light, and a hex value cannot capture it. Treat the swatch as the base color only.
