A calm, soft green

A gentle green named after the circular currents enjoyed by wild water swimmers as a natural jacuzzi. This evocative colour creates a seamless connection with nature, perfect for use in a garden room or alongside natural materials. A breath of fresh air, Eddy is also an ideal choice for calm, relaxing spaces. It is delicate in tone without crossing into pastel and sits at the lightest end of the French Gray and Treron family.

Key features

The finest ingredients

The finest ingredients

We’re dedicated to perfecting the art of paint. At our home in Dorset, we combine the finest ingredients, 75 years of experience and technical precision to help you create beautiful spaces that stay beautiful. Even in our colour rich paints, less than 8% of the tin is the colour. The other 92% is what creates the quality, depth and extraordinary response to light that transforms your home. 
 
Paint is like coffee. The colour is the froth on the top, but it’s the quality of the rest of the cup that makes it taste good. 
– Richard Ball, Farrow & Ball Co-founder 

We use twelve exclusive pigments, all specifically selected for their colour intensity. We take colour seriously, so naturally, we only accept the very best. By using these same pigments to make every colour in our palette, all our shades combine effortlessly, making it easy for you to put together a cohesive colour scheme. 

Deeper, richer colours

Deeper, richer colours

Packed with pigment for an extraordinary response to every kind of light.

We add generous helpings of rich pigment to create our signature look – deep colours with complex undertones. The same space that feels bright and airy in morning sun, can feel cosy and intimate by evening. Our teams design each shade under every kind of light, so it will be perfectly balanced in every setting.

Extraordinary response to light

Extraordinary response to light

We spend months carefully crafting and testing each of our paint colours to make sure they share our signature extraordinary response to light. This beautiful reaction to changing light, like bringing out different undertones or shifting intensity, is what makes our paint so special.

Interior and exterior finishes

Interior and exterior finishes

From walls, floors and furniture to radiators, skirtings and sheds, our range of paint finishes can help you transform almost any surface in your home (and outside it, too).

We even have multi-surface finishes like Dead Flat and Full Gloss, so you can tackle walls, woodwork and metal at the same time. 

Our comprehensive range is comprised of paint finishes that not only look beautiful, but offer different practical benefits. Designed for a variety of different surfaces, each finish is compatible with our high-performance Primers & Undercoats to ensure exceptional coverage, adhesion and depth of colour.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Calming Eddy This is a very soft, gentle colour. We have it in our downstairs bathroom and main bedroom. It works particularly well on paneling, everyone comments on it when they visit the bathroom. Like all F&B colours it changes in natural light. Creates a very calm atmosphere. Paint very easy to work with.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Eddy in Dead Flat I simply love this colour, it is so beautiful! I painted my dining room yesterday (not completely finished so I’ll add photos later). The dead flat paint was a joy to use and the result is outstanding. It is as the description - such a calming colour that reflects nature. Thank you F&B.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Soft but warm pastel I chose Eddy to paint the tongue and groove panelling in my farmhouse bathroom. I paired it with Wimborne White walls/ceilings and a pale mushroom (non FB) which already existed on some of the trims etc. I'm so pleased with the result - the green is a lovely subtle pastel, warm (I don't like mint greens) and not overpowering (it's a small room), it really seems to bring the outside in!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Buttery soft, soothing green After buying 14 samples of green color (8 Farrow&Ball, 6 others) I found Eddy for my kitchen wall. The most soothing green color ever. I catch myself staring at it; Eddy is barely there but so present and relaxing. I cannot define this shade of green as it does not have (at least not to my eye) any obvious undertones I found in other colors: blue, gray, yellow. I am planning to add Feathery Grass wallpaper (black/green combo) on a feature wall in my kitchen. I should also say it was our first-time painting with Farrow&Ball . Amazing quality !

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Ended up more gray than green than my sample I tried out many sample colors to try and find the right paint and ended up feeling disappointed I chose this one. I think it’s a very changeable color which is nice, when I had the sample up it changed from light green to light blue depending on the light (all with a muted grey undertone that felt sophisticated). However after painting the walls and ceiling I am left feeling disappointed with how gray and neutral it feels. It’s hard to get the green/blue vibes I got before. Normally I love all the farrow and ball paints I’ve used before but this one feels like an expensive mistake in my space. It’s not a bad color but not right for me.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Dodgy batch The paint I received was very thin and watery. Bought another in a local shop and it was a completely different texture. For the price of paint clearly not enough checks being done on quality. Very disappointed.
