In the past whites derived from the minerals like Lime or Chalk used in their production. Adding oils to bind them to make more durable paint altered their brightness and generally warmed them to the eye. This is what we are used to these days though modern ‘bleached’ paints have lightened our palette. Through our plant-based chemistry this white offers a bit of both – brightness but still a ‘fair’ amount of pigment to settle it down to a very slightly warm grey tone.
Getting the canvas of your room right is a challenge for any interior designer, so I was delighted when I discovered the Edward Bulmer paint range. The natural pigments that they use in their paints really do bring your interior to life and give their palettes a versatility and depth that I have failed to find elsewhere.

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.

We have used your paint for the first time in our new kitchen and it is absolutely stunning. One coat has covered really well. The colour is gorgeous (Granite Green) and the cover is exceptional. We will never use any other paint again.
“Stead Vallets is looking great, very happy with the colour choices, just need to get some furniture now.”
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.
Love this, so very charming, individual and cosy. The paint colour is perfect !
Each colour feels so carefully considered and they have a beautiful finish on the wall. We love to use colours that are less ’true’ as they work so well throughout the year, changing in tone with the seasons. It was this that drew us to Drab green.
To use this simple tool please add together the total wall lengths, so the parameter of the room which is the width measurement, then just one height measurement. This amount is based on coverage in 2 coats.
As a rough guide, 1 L of eggshell will cover 2-3 doors (both sides) and 1 L of eggshell will cover 20 metres of skirting board in min. 2 coats.
