Conversion Notes

Cosmo 2501 is a close match that may lean slightly warmer than DMC 498's blue-based garnet character. The warmth shift can push the color toward maroon rather than true dark red — a difference that matters in period-accurate heritage designs where the specific garnet quality is important. For standalone use in red-accent roles where the precise dark red character isn't critical, Cosmo 2501 performs adequately.
