‘An elegant tint for a drawing room and would add an illusion of height to ceilings on account of its ‘retiring appearance’ – so thought T.H.Vanherman in the 1820s. This is a beautiful smokey mauve with body and warmth which works in the same way now as it did in the early 19th century it would seem.

There are three reasons I chose Edward Bulmer Natural Paint. First and foremost the fantastic range of colours, from the historically authentic to the more contemporary, meant that there was something fitting for every room in my cottage. Secondly, the paint’s true 'green' credentials were important and led onto the third benefit that painters like working with it.

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.

When we moved into our cottage, we wanted to start by decorating our son’s room. The previous owner had painted the room white which felt stark and uninviting. I contacted the team at Edward Bulmer for advice on which colours to choose for this north facing room and they were incredibly helpful, on numerous occasions! …
Anyone who knows my love of moss and all things green will get my love of the freshness of Olympian Green – it reminds me of the first glimmer of spring when leaves are just starting to unfurl , there are of course lots of stunning green paints but this one is just a little …
I’d never heard of you until I read the paint schedule so was a bit weary as we’d had some problems with other paint brands. What a very pleasant surprise once we started using your Cerullian Blue. Beautiful colour and such brilliant quality paint.
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!
