Cerullian Blue

Known in house (and palace) painting in the C17th, this colour only requires blue, black and raw umber pigments. It is a rich colour when used on panelling and would have been expensive to achieve. Originally it would have been mixed in ‘oyle paint’ and built up in 3 to 5 layers. Our recipe is very successful in our water based emulsion and eggshells and can utterly transform a panelled room, even today!  All our water based paints are virtually odourless and contain no harmful VOC’s, you can sleep in the room the same day as painting it!

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 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. 

If you believe your paint is faulty, please contact our team.

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 …

A big thanks to the team at Edward Bulmer paints for being so nice. Fast becoming the best supplier in the UK. Little Greene and Mylands could learn a lot from this company.

We have used your paints to redecorate two good Regency houses, one of them Trematon Castle, both of architectural interest, and found the range and subtlety of your colours not only historically appropriate but providing an uplifting background for furniture and pictures. They enhance the proportions of every room and give each a very special atmosphere in sunlight and in …

I have always wanted to create a house with dark walls. You have to get the balance right though – go for striking, not gloomy. Tingry is the perfect choice.

Keeping it minimal and fresh in this dining space by @foresttohome featuring their Seasons Dining Table made from solid English oak. The wood is finished in natural oil, free from nasty VOC's, love to see brands making furniture out of natural materials and treating them with natural products. Paired perfectly with our colour 'Portland' ⁠on the walls, also natural and free from nasty VOC's and harmful chemicals 🌿🌍🌳⁠ ⁠ Happy Friday! ‘Lilac Pink’ looking warm and calming in @alisoncoldridge’s home, paired with beautiful flooring and flowers. Our paints are made using mineral and earth pigments so they change depending on the space, light and room - this versatility is what makes our paint different to any other on the market! #naturalpaint We are coveting every detail of this guest bedroom in Drumtennant, a newly built Georgian style house with interiors designed by @olpol_and_co and architecturally designed by @rupertcunningham from @benpentreathstudio. Painted in our ‘Pea Green’ on the walls, and our plaster pink ‘Jonquil’ on the ceiling and bathroom walls. Paired beautifully with curtain fabric by @gpjbaker and the chair upholstered in @theislemill… it’s magical, thank you @olpol_and_co 📸 @georgiarothmanproductions So lovely to see our ‘Turquoise’ ‘in full bloom’ at the Chelsea Flower Show with @comptonsmithinteriors and in such good company from fabrics, to furnishings and artwork. Take a look for yourself and head to stand EA440, the corner of Eastern Avenue and Eastern way. Thank you for using our plant-based paints for such a fitting event @comptonsmithinteriors and to such great effect. Take a look at our stories to see a few of our favourites paint colours paired with some beautiful blooms! 🌸🌿🎨 ‘Olympian Green’ bathroom at the home of @edward_bulmer who describes this colour as a ‘lime green without being a slime green’! Our colours are versatile and change in different spaces and lights because they are made from wonderful natural ingredients! Did you know that we are unique in making our paint with a plant-based binder, an alternative to a polymer derived binder used in most modern paints. These polymer binders contain micro beads and this particular ingredient is what contributes heavily to the 180,000 tones of micro plastics from paint ALONE that end up in our rivers and oceans every year! Switching to a natural paint is an easy way to avoid these devastating realities. Every day we strive to clean up the paint industry one tin at a time! 🌎🍃🎨💚 A stylish London bathroom suitably painted in our 'London Brown' ⁠in @my_london_home 🤎 We love how @my_london_home has painted the walls and panelling in the rich brown and paired this shade with slick black bath fittings and some minimalist homeware pieces. ⁠ ⁠ @edward_bulmer describes this as our 'dark chocolate'. We make this shade with just red oxide and black as all the old recipes would have it. We have given it a capital name for a serious metropolitan colour for those with the acquired taste. ⁠ ⁠ Discover the pure natural pigments in London Brown, with an extraordinary depth and response to light which synthetic paints cannot recreate. #naturalpaint
