Farrow & Ball has been making paint in Dorset, one batch at a time, since 1946 and remains one of only a few companies making a full range of traditional and modern paint finishes of the highest quality.

The depth and beauty of their paint colours are unmatched by other paints. They use more high quality pigments and resins and no low quality ‘fillers’, which gives our colours visibly greater depth and purity often referred to as the ‘Farrow & Ball look’. Unlike many other manufacturers they use naturally occurring pigments, such as Umbers in their purest form, and they continue to use natural ingredients such as Chalk, Lime Putty, Linseed Oil and China Clay. Their colour accuracy and quality is second to none as they have complete control over every tin of paint they produce. Everything is made in their factory in Dorset and don’t allow anyone else to make their products for them. Farrow & Ball paints grace the walls of some of the most beautiful homes across the world. The colours and finishes are historically rooted, meticulously researched, and reflect their unique heritage. All paints are water based, eco friendly and comply with the latest EU environmental legislation regarding the VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) content of paints. Their finishes are all low in odour and classified as either low or minimal VOC. These water based paints can be applied to surfaces previously painted in an oil based finish. However, surfaces painted in oil based paint require a minimum of two weeks drying time before water based paint is applied on top.
