Farrow & Ball are one of the best known brands of paint in both the UK and abroad. Manufactured in Dorset Farrow & Balls colours have become synonymous with 'Englishness' since their association with the National Trust in the early days. With names such as 'Sudbury Yellow', taken from the staircase at Sudbury Hall in Derbyshire, to the widely known 'Elephants Breath', Farrow & Ball's influence and useage are widespread.
Paints.
Farrow & Ball paints are still made using traditional tecchniques and to origianl formulations using high levels of pigmentsand rich resin binders. Their Estate Emulsion, one of their original finishes, still retains that flat chalky matt apperance for which they first became well known and helping to create that 'Farrow & Ball look'.
Wallpapers.
Farrow & Ball wallpaers are made and produced using tradional techniques and their own range of water-based paints. A hand brushing technique is used to apply a ground colour, followed by the application of patterns or stripes, making a wallpaper of unmatchable quality. The papers are finished off with a fine glaze to make the wipable and durable.
