Millennia ago bull’s blood would literally have been used to colour distempers and limewashes. The same effect can be achieved with a mixture of red oxide and yellow ochre and my mixture gives a browny red tone that is calm but serious and makes a room a statement. We are leading the way in producing a truly eco-friendly paint range and supplying an honest declaration of our ingredients.
Love love your beautiful paints thank you

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 redecorated our sitting room using Clove 60%, and we also rendered and painted the fire surround.

NO picture surfer here! I read every word of your book. Truly a standout among other Brit design books (a tough field). Your personality, judgement and creativity really come through. Thanks.
Fabulous Breathable paint. I used 2 pallet loads of their basic white for a 7 bedroom Georgian farmhouse renovation. Lovely to work with and excellent coverage. I have also used some of the beautiful colours as I need breathability with the lime plaster. Cannot fault it, totally recommend!

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!
