Artkal S55 Pistachio is only ΔE 1.5 away, so on a fused piece the two read as one color. If you run short of Pearlescent Green, that is the swap; if you want two distinct shades side by side, pick something further apart.
Across brands, Hama has the closest stand-in (Hama 47, ΔE 6.6) and Nabbi the furthest (Nabbi N22, ΔE 11.7). Nabbi's palette is small (30 colors), which limits its matches.
The name says pearl: that finish changes how the bead reads in light, and a hex value cannot capture it. Treat the swatch as the base color only.
