This is a beautiful smokey, grey blue. It is the colour I associate with the cloth used for the uniforms of French infantrymen in the 19th century. It would have been based on indigo the highly prized organic dye. It has a good tonality, a great foil for lighter colours used with it and a good compliment for stone and marble surfaces. This rich and warm colour is made from a combination of natural and earth pigments which have an extraordinary depth and response to light which synthetic paints cannot recreate.
Such a fantastic choice

We have spent years perfecting our pioneering plant-based paints and we are proud of the product we have created using gentle chemistry and a lot of dedication to making a more sustainable paint! We believe we are pioneers in creating natural paints using plant-based ingredients instead of petrochemical derived products.
Unlike many other paint brands, what’s in our tins is on our tins! We declare all of our ingredients, read our full list of ingredients and learn more about how our paint is made.
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.
We are not able to offer returns, as all of our paint is mixed to order and therefore is a bespoke product.
NB: We will accept returns of non bespoke products which include preparatory products.

“We are huge fans of the Edward Bulmer colour range for the scale of colours that we can choose from. Each one feels so carefully considered and they have a beautiful finish on the wall.”
We used Edward Bulmer paint in our 3 year old’s bedroom as we were worried about fumes/chemicals (he has a history of seizures which we didn’t want to trigger) and the paint has been a dream and looks wonderful!
Just wanted to say how much Will and I enjoyed meeting Amanda. She really was a wonderful help and I can’t quite believe we decided on nearly all the colours and all seemed to agree! I think it would have been impossible without her help and I didn’t relish the indecision and arguments that might …

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.
Please check our practical painting advice - if you are painting onto a very absorbent surface, you may need more paint, and for best results, you may need to prime your surfaces.
If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!
