Although popular in Regency-era colour palettes, the grey-blue shade of Farrow & Ball's De Nimes has its origins in something a little more modern: denim workwear. Like a favourite pair of jeans, it feels low-key but always stylish. -
Dead Salmon is a deep salmon pink, and one of Farrow & Ball's most complex shades. It's discernibly rosy in some lights, while its brown and warm grey tones come out more strongly in others. It's a flattering backdrop for any space, but looks particularly beautiful in candlelight great for a dining room. -
Dimity is a pale taupe with a subtle red base, named after a sheer cotton fabric popular in dressmaking. It has a great amount of warmth and depth, making for instantly welcoming hallways and living rooms. When paired with Pointing, it seems to take on a pinkier tone, while combining it with darker Oxford Stone creates a more aged look. -
Dix Blue is a vintage-inspired blue paint colour with generous doses of green and black pigment, which give it a complex, slightly aged appearance. It takes its name from one of the first Farrow & Ball stockists, based in the east of England. -
Dorset Cream is a traditional shade the exact colour of rich double cream, which is commonly made around Farrow & Ball's home in the south-west of England. It's a darker yellow than Farrow's Cream, best used with other yellow-based neutrals such as New White. -
Dove Tale is a warm mid-tone grey, perfect as a darker accent or alternative to Elephant's Breath. Its subtle lilac undertone gives it a soft and restful feel that suits bedrooms beautifully, especially when paired with Skimming Stone. -
Down Pipe is a true Farrow & Ball classic. A deep lead grey with a blue undertone, it creates a strong but complex finish on all sorts of surfaces, whether as a backdrop to your favourite gallery wall, a skirting board colour that ties every room together, or even a dramatic shade for floorboards. -
Drop Cloth is a mid grey beige or 'greige' that pays homage to our expert painters and decorators. It takes its name from the indispensable dust sheet, and is just as useful, creating the perfect neutral base for lighter tones like Shaded White and Shadow White. -
Eating Room Red is a deep, blackened burgundy shade that takes its name from the dining rooms of the mid-19th century, where damask wallpapers of this exact colour were a popular feature. -
Elephant's Breath is instantly recognisable as a Farrow & Ball shade, both in name and colour. It's a universally popular mid-tone grey with a subtle lilac undertone, which comes more to the fore in cooler light. Try it in a scheme alongside the darker Charleston Gray and London Clay for an effortlessly cool look. -
The first cream to feature in the Farrow & Ball palette is aptly named after the brand's co-founder, John Farrow. A classic wall colour, with no complexity-adding black pigment, Farrow's Cream creates pretty and traditional-feeling rooms. It looks particularly at home in a country kitchen. -
French Gray, despite its name, leans heavily towards green. A beautifully subtle and indeterminate shade, it takes its inspiration from colours popular in French decoration in the 19th century, and creates very relaxed-feeling rooms. Its green undertone makes it a sympathetic colour for exterior woodwork, especially front doors. -
Great White is a white with just a hint of pink. Its subtlety makes it a wonderful wall colour for children's rooms, offering the delicate sweetness of a pale lilac-pink with the versatility and sophistication of a neutral. Its undertone also makes it a natural partner for stronger pinks such as Rangwali. -
No colour has provoked more debate among Farrow & Ball's followers than Green Blue. It appears differently to everyone and changes colour with the light, adding intrigue to any room but all are sure to agree on its soft, aquatic tones, which are particularly perfect for a relaxing bathroom. -
Green Smoke is one of Farrow & Ball's most versatile greens, working just as well on kitchen cabinets and panelling as it does on walls. It's a deep and smoky shade with a generous dose of blue pigment, inspired by the interiors of the late 19th century. -
Hague Blue is a fantastically popular Farrow & Ball blue, a deep and inky favourite for walls, woodwork, and front doors alike. Try it as a darker accent to Borrowed Light, or all over for rooms that make a real statement. -
Hardwick White is one of the deepest and most grey-toned of the Farrow & Ball whites. Used as a wall colour, it's a sophisticated chalky hue that appears much more grey than white. Contrasted with a strong shade such as Off-Black, meanwhile, it appears much brighter. -
Hay is a warm and dusty yellow with a distinct green undertone, evoking the freshness of the crop from which it takes its name. It's less intensely coloured than the sunny Yellow Ground, and therefore easier to use for those who love yellow but are nervous of strong wall colours. -
House White is a clean, cool off-white shade. With its slight green undertone, it's far from a classic cream paint, looking almost citrussy on walls. Try it with All White woodwork for an effortless combination. -
Incarnadine is a rich crimson colour. Unashamedly glamorous, especially when used in Farrow & Ball Full Gloss, it can be used in a strong palette with Tanner's Brown woodwork or with a bright white, which will create a fresher feel. -
Inchyra Blue was once a custom Farrow & Ball paint colour, created specially for Inchyra House in Perthshire. Its deep blue-grey tone takes its inspiration from wild and stormy Scottish skies, and is just as changeable as the weather in certain lights, it can take on a more blue, grey, or even green cast. -
India Yellow has an unusual source of inspiration, taking its name from a pigment traditionally collected from the urine of cows fed on mango leaves. It's a very modern yellow, thanks to its deep earthy tones, and looks just as good used in moderation as it does all over a smaller room to create a cosy escape. -
James White was originally created for a Dr James, a discerning man whose garden room was in need of a lightly green-based white. The finished result is subtle and soothing, and looks particularly good in rooms that receive little natural light. -
Jitney takes its name from the Hampton Jitney, the bus that whisks New Yorkers away from the stifling city and towards the sea air of the Hamptons during the summer months. This beachy destination inspired the colour of Jitney a relaxed and effortlessly cool sandy brown. -
Joa's White is named after Farrow & Ball's Colour Curator, Joa Studholme. A light taupe with just the slightest amount of black, this versatile shade from the Red Based Neutrals group looks particularly fitting alongside natural materials like leather, linen and stone.
