A romantic and muted rose

Not to be seen as overtly pink, but rather a muted rose with enormous warmth, its powdery feel makes it incredibly soft and easy to use with complementary tones. Sulking Room Pink is evocative of the colours so often used in boudoirs, a room named after the French "bouder" - to sulk.

Complementary white: Skimming Stone

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 Buy it! This paint is so beautiful. It truly can't be matched! I've been admiring farrow and ball interiors for years but hesitant to pull the trigger because of price and not being able to just pick it up from a local hardware store, but shipping is pretty fast and convenient and I think it's worth every penny! I think I'm going to use farrow and ball in every room now.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the colour and quality After using this brand in our bedroom we also decided to decorate our kitchen and picked sulking room pink. We love it! We bought a 2.5ltr tin from B&Q and only used 1/3 (2-3 coats). We had a dark blue colour previously so needed a couple of coats. The quality of the paint is the best we have ever used and won’t look to another brand now! Love it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Rich atmospheric colour I bought this colour not exactly sure if I was a pink kind of person! I love colour was was not sure and usually choose blue, green hues, so after buying my first little victorian cottage I was really excited about doing something more in keeping with its history. So before I could think straight ,with excitement I was buying estate emulsion in Sulking room pink. The name pretty much sold it! I decided to put panelling to give the walks some interest as I'm not of fan off plain walls, I'm a wallpaper addict..so this was out my comfort zone. I kind of new what look I wanted in my little bedroom used two coats to give good coverage. I used skimming Stone on the ceiling to give an aged look. I took the paint right down to the skirting so the eye stayed up above as the room is small. In the evening the room is very atmospheric it has deep rich tones almost blackend pink. It creates lovely colours with the lamps on. During the day it's smooth and cosy and has covered everything very evenly. I dressed the room with stuff I like, velvet curtains, silk prints, floral throw, and gold accents mirrors, lamps, curtain pole hooks ect. I wanted the pink to be calm and soothing and feel victoriana and not 5 year old bedrom, and its definitely done the job. I haven't completed the room yet, need fireplace, carpet, rugs, but it's looking fabulous so far. Highly recommend this gorgeous colour and now I'm into pink..wonder what Farrow and Ball will be next!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gorgeous My husband gifted me a can of sulking room pink because I wouldn’t buy it even though I constantly admired the color. Well, it was worth the money! Used this color in the foyer and it’s stunning. I absolutely love this color wish I would have used it sooner. Also love the dead flat finish. Did I say that I love this color?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lovely Strong colour I ordered a test pot in this colour. I really liked the colour but it was a bit too dark for where I wanted. I didn’t feel brave enough to go ahead. I used Setting Plaster instead, which looks fab!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful romantic colour Completely transformed the powder room! It was a really boring beige before and I wanted to go for a cosy and slightly moody look. So in love with this colour now it's just perfect for this space.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from incredible - moody, french-inspired dusty rose This is my first time using F&B paint, and it did not disappoint. I painted my home office with sulking room pink, and it's the moody, french-inspired dusty rose of my dreams. It's even more gorgeous in person than on the screen.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Stunning colour We bought this paint for a north facing small room which we have always painted light colours to try and brighten it up. We finally took the plunge on something darker and this colour is absolutely beautiful. It has incredible depth and has brought life into the entire room. In the day it looks like a deep rose pink and at night a rosy deep brown. Such a stunning colour.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful deep powder rose Have used this in the lounge and office/smallest bedroom and it just looks opulent. I have paired with Hague Blue and receive many compliments on the depth of the colour. There is nothing else like it. Try it, you won’t be disappointed! Find me on instagram #yasmininteriorhome

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Premium pink I used this for my very small spare room (walls, ceiling, woodwork, the whole shabang) and although it is quite dark, it gives a lovely character to what would otherwise be a dull little box. It’s quite grey and very far from the Barbie world of pinks. Some of my guests have called it purple as well… It’s incredibly difficult to photograph, as it changes a lot throughout the day depending on the light.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A grown up pink I was struggling to find the right shade for my small dark room. Paler pinks looked dull and washed out. I am so pleased I messaged you and you suggested Sulking Room. A gorgeous deep pink that is very grown up. The paint was a dream to work with too. First coat looked awful and I panicked a bit. Second coat went on lovely. Nice thick paint, no splashing or runs, even for this amateur decorator.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Prompt Delivery Beautiful Paint I am trying to find the perfect pink for my kitchen cabinets and wall for block colouring one half of my kitchen. I ordered a sample of sulking room pink that arrived promptly. I am still undecided as I fear in shaded areas of the kitchen this colour will look too dark and more taupe. However, yesterday on our lovely late summer weather when the sun hit the sample area the colour was beautiful. The most lovely earthy and dusty muted pink. I love Farrow and Ball paints and how they change colour throughout the day. I wish you could buy samples in the finish you would ultimately buy, such as modern eggshell as it would help to make a final decision.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sulking room pink estate eggshell Nice colour and lovely paint to apply. I went for the estate eggshell because of the low sheen for my kitchen paneled splash backs and it looks great and seems to be easily wipe clean.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Choice This colour has a beautifully rich tone, it has created a sumptuous, dark and calming space. The Dead Flat finish is exactly as expected and has covered wood work, walls and ceilings perfectly (we used the recommended primer for both). The decorator also commented that application was very easy and the paint was easy to work with. Highly recommended!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My favourite colour of all time. My daughters room is the best room in the house. It’s absolutely gorgeous and when the light hits it, it creates a gorgeous warm cosy feeling. I love the colour so much I’ve named my business after it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Master bedroom Love the way this room turned out. I feel like it is romantic but not too feminine which is suiting for a master bedroom when you're sharing with a man.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Obsessed I am so in love with this colour, now our bedroom is my favourite room in the house. We get so many comments on how incredible it looks in warm and cold daylight and how gorgeous the colour is. Hard to describe but sort of pink / plum / brown - it doesn't sound great but honestly it's amazing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very French! Painted a feature wall in our old farmhouse with Sulking Room and absolutely love this colour!! It’s very French and I can’t stop looking at it! Purple/brown/mushroom undertones you won’t be disappointed with this colour, very romantic

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lovely versatile color. It took me a while to decide on a color for my very small northfacing Bathroom and I am extremely happy with Sulking Room Pink. The tiles have been plastered and the room ist painted in Modern Eggshell from the wooden ceiling to the floor. Exept the wallpaper in the shower. It changes with the light and looks fresh in the morning and warm and calming in artificial light.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Dead Flat- Sulking Room Pink The color is rich and stunning. However, I had mistakenly purchased the Dead Flat finish rather than what I wanted, which was the Modern Emulsion finish as I used this in my 7 year old daughter's bedroom. There was no scent residue and very easy to use, however I'm concerned with easy cleaning. I tried emailing Farrow as soon as I made the accidental purchase to change finishes, however no one responded and the paint arrived several days later.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Lovely colour and finish but took 4 coats! Of course, the FB finish is beautiful - but this took four coats despite very generous amount of paint being used for each roller application. One wall I brush painted to see if that made any difference and it didn't. Even after four coats, I can still see areas of patchiness! The wall had been lined ready for painting so should have been a straightforward application. Nevertheless, it does look lovely but I don't think I'll be going with FB for the other major rooms in the house.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Stunning colour, paint comes.off easily. The colour is stunning and I am very happy with it. The paint comes.off super easy despite putting it on top of primer. We painted other room with Dulux and another room with Crown and this is the worst in terms of quality. I would.not buy this brand again.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Color is amazing, but only if you bought enough I recently bought a gallon of Sulking Ro­om Pink and then used it all and around a month later bought a sample can just to touch up the line between the ceiling and walls and it's come out a completely different shade that doesn't blend in at all and has ruined the aesthetic. My contractor had to do a third coat of paint with a new gallon to fix this issue. I'm really upset that the colors are so incredibly noticeably different even thou­gh I bought the cans so close together and now it cost me a new gallon of paint and anoth­er two hours of paying a contractor. I would not buy Farrow and Ball again.
