The lovely grey green shade of tea leaves is what gives the colour its name. Subtle though it is we need 5 pigments to nuance this beautiful shade. It is a confident wall colour but still deferential enough to compliment architectural features and make a sophisticated setting for other furnishings – for period work it works equally well in Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian houses. Here at Edward Bulmer Natural Paint, we make natural paints for period homes so the walls can maintain their breathability for the next 200 years.
Just wanted to say how delighted we are with the result with the Tea Green paint. We got back from a few days away to find our decorator had done a brilliant job and it is a perfect green for our timber-framed house! We would certainly use your paint again. It really has a lovely finish. So, a very satisfied customer indeed!

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.
