Our paint colours are 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.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Even better than ever Beautiful colour changes with the light. The best colour we've ever painted our bedroom but it would work in any room. Farrow and Ball quality in application and depth of colour as always.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gorgeous colour! I really love the warmth of this colour! I would say it is lighter than I originally expected and is more peachy/nude than terracotta however it is still a gorgeous colour and I’m really happy with it! It also does look different depending how much light is in the room, I have it on another wall which is shadier and does have a darker tone. I would also say that’s it’s a shame there are no sample pots (I like to keep sample pots for the colours I’ve used in case I need to do touch ups) but overall I am pleased!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful Soft Muted Orange This color is gorgeous and precisely as described. I almost didn’t buy based on a couple of the reviews stating that it is a bright peach or not a muted pale, which is untrue. I’m so glad I purchased it. It’s beautiful.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this colour! Sent for the paper swatch first,different to a sample pot but I actually prefer it as you can take it around the room and see how it looks in different lights. Loved the colour so sent for 2 x 5 litre tins to paint our living room and it looks superb! Cosy and warm, it looks lovely in sunlight and with the nights drawing in it will enhance the rustic look of of our old cottage and log burner. Really happy with it,and it went on like a dream.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Like the paint swatches ! I really like the paint swatches, but they only seem to be available in the California Collection. It would be great to get swatches instead of sample pots for all the F&B paint ranges, as the sample pots are difficult to dispose of, so not very environmentally friendly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fabulous natural colour I absolutely love Faded Terracotta. It’s a warm and natural color. We’ve used it in our bedroom together with Dimity. Matches perfectly!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Tuscany feel Absolutely love the colour. It gives a warm glow to the room. I used as one feature wall, with the three other walls and ceiling painted in Dimity. The result is just what I wanted and has been much admired.
