Default Help...pearl white color code & name

Can anyone who knows the color code and color name of the following pearl white color please let me know.

There are 2 sets of pictures, if they're the same fine. If not, I'm hoping someone can tell me the difference.

That car/color looks like the 3rd and 4th picture I posted. it almost looks like it's white with gold pearl and is much different than the 1st and 2nd picture I posted.

Thanks for the code Norbert, but can you tell me if it's for the 1st/2nd picture or the 3rd/4th/and edgy01's picture?

Also what's the name, if any?

I found a 947 93 code (no L if that matters) named perlglanzeffekt, is this the one you're referring to?

Thanks, it seems the code keeps coming back to the L947 number but there are still 2 names:

-perlglanzeffekt
-perlmuttweiss

Does anyone know if there are in fact 2 different names/colors for pearl white?
Thanks again for the replies and help.

perlmuttweiss - is the name of the color - code is 947 or L947 ( to make a differece to the M-Codes )

perlglanzeffect is the appearance of the color

it appears like a shiny perl - would be a way to translate


Best

Thank you Norbert for the clarification. Great to know you can count on members!
btw, you should have left your initial reply, gave me a chuckle!

The shots a I posted are actually not good true to life -- there is no gold in them thar curves. It's a scan of a Kodachrome slide or two that I simply didn't match well. It's all one color--L947.

Reviving a very old thread here!

Is L947 Perlmutt Weiss different than L0A9 Pearl White Metallic?

Or was this a rebrand of the same color?

Without doing much online research, Rennbow somewhat shows they're the same color just different numbers/names. Lighting plays a big factor into what colors look like but they do look similar.
