  • We want you to be satisfied with your colour selection. Not all monitors will display colours the same and paint tins may not show the same colour as your walls do in natural light.

Stunning durable paint

Beautiful paint using for shower room. Hopefully should be durable enough for extended use in a shower room

Wonderful colours - terrible paint

Attracted by Farrow and Ball's unique and gorgeous colours, we decided to go with them throughout for the bedroom, despite the comparative expense. Turned out to be a major error. Putting a hand on the wall to steady oneself is a no-no. It will leave a mark, which it seems will be worsened by attempts to wipe it off. Indeed, a PDF on Farrow and Ball's own website advises that a mark on the wall may or may not be remedied even by touching up over the stain. The company recommends, appallingly, that the whole wall may need to be repainted. The gloss on the wordwork is also a disappointment. Three coats may suffice as the paint is so thin. We will not be using Farrow and Ball paints again, despite the beauty of their colour palette. The material itself is just too burdensome and impractical. But are the colours really that precious? One can do wonders these days with a RGB Colour Picker that can convert to RAL for a custom mix of better-quality paint. Farrow and Ball, now barred from the rest of the whole house refurbishment. Wonderful colours - terrible paint.

Gorgeous

I've used this colour in other rooms and it continues to impress. The depth of colour gives this east/west facing room a warm yet airy feel. Another of Farrow and Balls great achievements 😊

Ok

Lovely colour but poor coverage. Needed three coats over white.

Love this paint

I love the customer service at Farrow and Ball. Yes, the paint is more expensive than I have been used to, but you get what you pay for. The cost is worth it. Beautiful coverage. Easy to clean up. Love, love, love it.
