A fresh mid blue
This fresh mid blue’s name comes from the shade of the sea at beautiful Lulworth Cove, Dorset. Typical of a formal Regency hue, Lulworth Blue sits happily alongside similarly clean Wimborne White and Parma Gray. Despite its brightness, it can promote deep and peaceful sleep when used in low lit rooms, especially when used on both walls and woodwork.

Beautiful colour paints on so easily.
Worth using the correct undercoat for a fantastic depth of colour. As with all paint , the colour looks different according to the amount and quality of the light hitting it. But with the Farrow and Ball finish I think this quality is subtle and beautiful, changing the mood of the room. I am not clever with colour or a skilled decorator but the paint goes on so easily and dries without leaving brush marks for a truly professional finish. The amount in the tin seems to cover a greater area than other brands, drying very quickly and there is no smell. We have an old house and the colours are truly sympathetic with the brick and woodwork. I am absolutely delighted.

A pleasant, restful and understated colour
This colour appears a bit grey in full daylight but reveals its true blue indoors, under artificial light and in shady areas outside. A clean fresh "seaside" colour, as the name implies. Looks particularly good when offset with white or cream.
Delivered, superbly packed, in less than 24 hours from online order.
Very nice paint to use, goes on smoothly, covers well (though don't expect to get away with one coat) and dries much quicker than oil based paints. A bit expensive but worth the difference and what a treat to wash out the brushes in water after use!
