A traditional cream
Our original cream is named after the paint pioneer who first founded the company with Richard Ball in Dorset, England. Farrow’s Cream is a pretty, traditional colour, with no addition of black pigment, which creates delightfully inviting rooms with a gentle warmth. It feels just as at home on the panelling of a 17th century hall as it does on the wooden cupboards of a relaxed family kitchen.

Beautiful Colour and Finish
Most of our Victorian house has been painted using Farrow and Ball paints. The quality and finish, of both the emulsions and egg shells is unsurpassed. We used Farrow's cream in our hall,stairs and landing. Although the colour seemed intensely yellow at first, partly because we had grown accustomed to the whitewash, we soon fell in love with the delightfully warm glow. It is the perfect colour for the centre of the house - light and bright during the day when the sun shines through the hallway, warm and sumptuous in the evening by artificial light. Visitors to the house always ask about the colour, we can't recommend it enough

Beautiful cream
Must admit, I wasn’t 100 sure of my purchase. What was holding me back was ‘it’s cream’, sounds outdated, maybe an old fashioned colour for a kitchen or something, the colour in the tin doesn’t look great. What made me go ahead was all the great reviews, people using this colour forever, and I wanted a nice warm colour that wasn’t white. So I thought what the heck just try it. I am really glad I picked this colour, it’s really beautiful and my photos won’t do it justice. It’s not old fashioned at all, it’s a really lovely timeless cream that uplifts the room. The photos I’m sharing isn’t the finished result as still work in progress.
