The first paint makers to register this colour did so in 1764 but the recipe has wandered about all over the place since then! It gives a dramatic look when used today as a wall colour. Our use of Prussian Blue, Chrome Yellow and earth pigments lends it tonal complexity and welcome warmth. Its origins were in Brunswick where our base paint is now made. We work with a pioneering team of gentle chemists to create paint which does not cost the earth, is eco-friendly and kind to your health.
I just thought I should tell you that the builders love your paint. The big chief says he will definitely use it again!!

We use our local courier service called APC which is based in Hereford. APC operates franchises throughout the country and we can deliver parcels throughout the UK on an overnight service.

Excellent customer service! Emma was so incredibly helpful with her colour consultancy advice and always very quick at getting back to all my queries. I love the finished result from using Lilac Pink on the walls and Spanish White on the ceiling. Would recommend in a heartbeat.

We have created this calculator to help you estimate the amount of paint you will need for your project. Please note that this is only an estimate, based on normal surfaces with two coats of paint.
