Excellent!
Excellent quality as usual from F&B! Beautiful subtle colour, easy to apply with the F&B primer, and very durable.

A chameleon colour.
Wanted a warm, light colour for our ongoing revamp of our bedroom but didn't want white. Skimming Stone is just the perfect colour, by day a warm, creamy colour and by night the most gorgeously warm, very pale grey but this doesn't really do it justice; it seems to subtly change colour all through the day. Love it so much ended up colour drenching the whole room. Goes very well with the Dove Tale and Charleston Gray accessories that I am currently upcycling.

Quality paint!
This is the best painter have ever used. Great buttery texture, rich color, smells great.

Happy First Time Buyer
Easy to Order, excellent delivery service and my painter said it was a dream to apply, very happy with quality and beautiful colour.

This paint is fantastic!
Absolutely love this paint. Goes on like butter, rich color, and no nasty smell.

Perfect!
Bought the sample to try and immediately knew it was the paint for the job. The colour was perfect. The feel of the wall after the paint dried was smooth and the paint texture was creamy. I've purchased the large tin and would recommend this paint 100%

Okay
Went on well enough but don’t think it’s any better than other makes that are a lot cheaper.

Lovely paint, the best.
We will definately buy F&B paint again. We used skimming stone with a feature wall in pigeon, love it as does everyone else. Low odour when freshly painted and covers well.

Excellent painting experience
First time I’ve used Farrow and Ball paint and surprised at how easy it is to use. Much better coverage than other paints I’ve used before. Yes it costs more than other paints but in my opinion well worth the extra, particularly on the 3 for 2 deal at B & Q.

Outstanding quality, calming colour.
First time I have used dead flat, went on like a dream! Used on walls, woodwork and radiator - very convenient to use on all surfaces. Has a chalky finish which takes a bit of getting used to on woodwork if you're used to a satin finish.Was almost perfect after two coats but woodwork needed 3 coats. Have used skimming stone before and its a very soft colour between a grey and beige that changes with the light and seems to go well in all rooms - never looks cold or flat.
