Conversion Notes

Madeira 1714 is a close match for DMC 317 Pewter Gray. Be aware that the same Madeira number (1714) appears in some older charts as a match for DMC 413 Dark Pewter Gray, which is a full shade darker. This appears to be a data inconsistency in historical conversion tables rather than an actual match for both — verify visually before using. Madeira 1714 for 317 purposes performs well for the mid-gray applications where 317 is most commonly used: architectural fills, stone textures, and animal coat gradients. Madeira's slightly elevated sheen compared to DMC gives a subtle luminosity that can work attractively in metallic-adjacent designs.
