Leather color on European models - our friends across the pond please weigh in!

Looking at picking up a part from Europe for my car, but I'm trying to make sure it's the right color. My interior is Oyster Vernasca leather. Is that what this appears to be? It looks really close to my interior, but I'm not sure if there is a European color that is close that could be fooling me. Trying to match colors over the internet based on pictures without part numbers is hard to do!

Part number should be printed/labeled in the back of those pieces.

They are, but they don't make any sense! Is this possibly Canberra beige leather?

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for confirming. How can you tell? I'm looking for this part in oyster. Any idea where I could look for a part number?

I'm curious how you can tell these are Canberra (although it's what I suspected). The numbers on the parts don't appear to align with any bmw part numbers!

Yeah, I've wasted a lot of time there. I believe this part is from an M440 - the G22 isn't listed on real OEM!
