A high-class historical name for a deep and meaningful colour which is basically a purple brown dark iron oxide pigment. We come by our colour with a range of earth and mineral pigments to arrive at a rich reddy tone that turns walls into a serious exercise in colour. This tone is surprisingly accommodating however and will give you a dramatic backdrop for the display of artwork. Like our historical Pompadour colour, all our natural paints are perfect for period properties and we can assure you the walls can maintain their breathability for the next 200 years.
Love this, so very charming, individual and cosy. The paint colour is perfect !

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.

Have tried it out on one wall and it is excellent paint. Goes on easily, dries to a lovely finish and very low odour. Am very pleased with it and will not go back to Dulux!
