Carlton House had the most extravagant interiors in all of Regency London. Happily it was recorded in a beautiful series of watercolours, published as aquatints, by William Henry Pyne before its destruction by George IV. He shows three interiors painted in Granite Green and remarks in his text how admirably the colour sets off the exotic marbles used for the columns. I find this shade still works fantastically in this regard – the Prussian blue and yellow ochre in its make up anchoring it beautifully to all sorts of natural materials from marble and stone through to wood and terra cotta.
We offer our Granite Green in a selection of lighter shades. 60%, 40% and 20% lighter shades, to cover the use of this beautiful colour throughout the home. Green in colour and creating a greener future, we make beautiful natural paints that do not cost the earth.
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.

“Make sure they’re eye level. And also don’t be afraid about it! You don’t want your pictures sitting on your floor for ages never hanging them. It’s much better that they’re up, even if they’re not up in completely the right way.”
Still much to do on the house. It is happening very ‘organically’ shall we say. But it looks fab in its progression and we’re very happy. The paint never goes unnoticed!

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.

If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!
