Read from its own picture, not from a name.
A golden undertone, warm without leaning red. LRV is light reflectance value, the share of light a surface sends back, the same scale paint makers print on every chip: 0 is black, 100 is white.
Antique Natural Oak has a gentle movement from board to board (a spread of 1.9 in L*): calm, but not flat.
The shaded band is within 30 points of the floor. A wall inside it blurs into the floor; BS 8300 asks for at least 30 points between surfaces that meet.
Named colors with the maker's code and LRV, each linked to its page.
A soft neutral with a touch of warmth (hue 97°), so Antique Natural Oak stays golden without turning yellow.

About Antique Natural Oak and color, answered from the numbers above.
Classic Gray (Benjamin Moore OC-23, LRV 73.7): a soft neutral with a touch of warmth (hue 97°), so Antique Natural Oak stays golden without turning yellow. It sits 54 LRV points from the floor (LRV 20), more than the 30 points that keep a wall and a floor reading apart. Or Dover White (Sherwin-Williams SW 6385, LRV 82.5).
Swiss Coffee (Benjamin Moore OC-45, LRV 81.9): 62 points over Antique Natural Oak in LRV and warm enough (chroma 5.7) to read white, not blue, beside its golden undertone.
Naval (Sherwin-Williams SW 6244, LRV 4.5): deep and cool, about 173° around the color wheel from Antique Natural Oak and 16 points darker in LRV, so each makes the other look richer. Lower cabinets or an island in Naval, uppers and trim in Swiss Coffee. The floor at LRV 20 sits between the two (5 and 82).
Contrast, not a match: a step darker: a charcoal wood (like our Heritage Brown stain sample), or a step lighter: a pale, bleached wood (like our Natural stain sample). A wood like our Fruitwood sample is only 4.6 apart (CIEDE2000) and reads as a near miss.
Living room: Classic Gray walls and Swiss Coffee trim around Antique Natural Oak, an oatmeal rug with an espresso border, a coffee table in a charcoal wood, aged brass lamps. Kitchen: Naval on the island or the lower cabinets, Swiss Coffee uppers, unlacquered brass pulls, Antique Natural Oak underfoot.
Mid dark: LRV 20 and L* 52, measured from its own picture, with a golden undertone. At LRV 20, Antique Natural Oak is mid dark: it is at its best in a big room with good light and warm lamps, and it shows dust, pet hair and fine scratches more than a mid tone.
Walls at the lightness of Antique Natural Oak: Retreat (Sherwin-Williams SW 6207, LRV 20.9) sits within a point of its LRV of 20, so wall and floor would blur into one. Wood that almost matches Antique Natural Oak: a tone like our Fruitwood sample, 4.6 apart (CIEDE2000), reads as a near miss. Go clearly darker or lighter.
Light, size and wear, from the floor's own record.
At LRV 20, Antique Natural Oak is mid dark: it is at its best in a big room with good light and warm lamps, and it shows dust, pet hair and fine scratches more than a mid tone.

Antique Natural Oak is waterproof, so it belongs in kitchens, baths, mudrooms and basements as well as living spaces.

Paint names, codes, hex and LRV as Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore publish them (each color links to its page).
BS 8300-2:2018 asks for a difference of at least 30 LRV points between adjacent surfaces, such as a floor and a wall, so the surfaces read apart.
The floor measured from its own picture in CIELAB (D65); the wood tones from our own photographs of 37 stains on oak.
A picture's lightness depends a little on how it was lit, so the floor's LRV is read from the evenly lit field the visualizer lays and rounded. See the real floor before you choose paint: visit the showroom, or ask for a free measure and estimate.

Price codes
A price code is a color, violet through red, that places a floor among others of its kind by its price supplied and installed. Violet is the most affordable, red the top of the range.
Luxury vinyl
Prefinished hardwood
It makes floors quick to compare here and to match to their samples in the showroom. The price of your job is the one on your written, line-item estimate. A floor without a code, such as laminate, is priced installed after a free measure.
