The beautiful opalescent appearance of a pearl is hard to pin down as one colour, but the name was used to describe white pigmented with Prussian blue, black, ochre and even Indian red (madder) in the C19th. Our colour takes a hint from all these natural and earth pigments but uses them very sparingly to create the pale radiance of the best jewellery pearl. We believe in creating timeless colours through carefully research plant-based chemistry.
Love love your beautiful paints thank you

Our decorator decided to use it just in case, so not sure if we really needed it or not. And after being worried he wasn’t keen on our non-Dulux choice, (he told me he has only used natural paint (Auro) four times in forty years) he said he thought it was great, went on well and lovely …

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!
