Header
Header is a wonderful warm terracotta tone. This colour works well in any room, from hallways to country kitchens and bedroom. It will flatter architectural features and antiques as well as warm up smaller cosy spaces.
We have a very popular colour called Brick, but in some rooms and in some aspects it’s a little too strong and so Edward created a colour that really has half the strength of Brick with a little bit more yellow ochre, just to give it a slightly orangey hue. The provenance of its name? Well as a brick can be used in two ways, length ways or end on, known as stretcher or header, the half a brick or the head is the name that we have given to this colour.

The thing I’ve always loved about Edward Bulmer Natural Paint is that it’s not just a flat finish, it has a real resonance to it. That’s especially true of Header, with its softness and warmth – you can almost feel the movement of light within it. It’s the perfect backdrop for our showroom, where it catches the changing light throughout the day.

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.
