Conversion Notes
Anchor 901 is a close match for DMC 3829 Very Dark Old Gold that works adequately in most antique and aged-gold design contexts. The Anchor version can sit fractionally more warm-brown than the DMC, which in most standalone applications is invisible in the finished piece. If blending with the rest of the DMC old gold family (680, 729, 677), the slight undertone shift is worth checking to ensure shadow transitions remain coherent. A comparison swatch under the project's display lighting is the most reliable test.
