Yellow Ground

No.218

A timeless mid yellow

One of our most useable yellows, this sunny shade was first used as a background colour within our ever evolving wallpaper collection. Yellow Ground sits between the fresher pigments of Citron and the richer mustard tone of Sudbury Yellow. It creates a happy and stimulating space in any light without being overpowering in colour. 

Recommended Primer & Undercoat: White & Light Tones

Complementary white: White Tie

Yellow Ground is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 54.

Back in 2010, we moved to an entirely water based range of finishes, becoming the first in the industry to do so. These low-odour, low-VOC finishes are easy to clean without harmful solvents. They are also certified child- and baby-safe in accordance with Safety of Toys Part 3: Migration of certain elements (EN 71-3:2019+A1:2021).

Exclusions: Casein Distemper, Wood Floor Primer & Undercoat, Wood Knot & Resin Blocking Primer & Undercoat, and Metal Primer & Undercoat.


QUALITY FINISHES

Every one of our paint colours is available in a range of durable interior and exterior paint finishes, each rigorously tested to ensure an exceptional depth of colour and long-lasting finish. For the very best results, we always recommend using a Farrow & Ball Primer & Undercoat – see above for the correct tone for this colour.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Yellow ground estate emulsion Very happy with the paint and the colour Have used F&B regularly all over the house Find the limited range of sample pots in local stockists very inconvenient -would have tried more samples for other areas if they had been available on the shelf -used other brand instead

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Incredible! I searched a long time for the right colour for an accent wall in my south-facing living room with large windows. Yellow ground is beautiful, joyful and warm, extending the sunlight into the entire depth of the room. The pigmentation is fabulous to paint. I have used many paints before, in different countries and lighting conditions, but never had anything like this.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Vibrant You can’t go wrong if you use the farrow and ball system (primer & paint). Yellow ground is vibrant and the colour changes depending on the lighting. The ceiling is painted in Wimborne white and the trim in white tie. The combination of colours lifted our dinning room.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth every penny! I used yellow ground in my hallway & it was lovely. Just as the colour chart indicated. Painted the cupboard cooks blue & again a fantastic colour. Really rich and both went on like a dream. Definitely worth the money & I'm now converted so will use Farrow & Ball from now on. Thank you!
