From old accounts it would seem that what was sold as Flaxen Grey was a deeper shade of French Grey. With this in mind we have used a similar recipe to achieve a more intense colour. On the walls it has an amazing effect, lifting even rather plain walls above the ordinary and unifying spaces in a satisfyingly coherent way. As well as this our plant-based paint is odourless, breathable and free of any harmful toxins or chemicals.
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 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 …
The dining/music room was painted in Duck Egg and again is east-facing. The colour seems to change throughout the day, becoming a beautiful soft greeny shade in evening light. We wanted a good colour to hang paintings against, and it shows them up very well
First, I wanted to say how well all your recommendations are looking so far and that the decorator loves the paints. Apparently they’re a joy to use and even his wife notices how much nicer he smells using them!
Your paint touched up really well! Impressively so and this was after four or five years
It took me months to choose and I am happy I have chosen your paint. Even the professional painters who are mainly working on Heritage houses are impressed with the depth of the colour and ease of use.
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!
