Hawtrey was the family name of the builders of Chequers, the Prime Minister’s country house. It is fitted out with oak and holly panelling that gives the rooms a tobacco warmth. This shade was mixed to complement the woodwork and is heavily dependent on earth pigments, so it is warmly muddy and very comforting.
It is a good complementary shade as it will flatter all other colours and provide a really accommodating background to fabrics, furniture and artworks.

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 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.
