A soft and stony grey
A soft grey with a touch of green, this stony neutral is simply named after the colour of bones found in the animal kingdom. Softer than Old White, Bone creates a timeless look suited to halls when combined with Lime White on woodwork. It can also be used to create a feeling of light and space when paired with lighter tones; or as a sympathetic neutral with our stronger, more traditional colours.

The finest ingredients
We’re dedicated to perfecting the art of paint. At our home in Dorset, we combine the finest ingredients, 75 years of experience and technical precision to help you create beautiful spaces that stay beautiful. Even in our colour rich paints, less than 8% of the tin is the colour. The other 92% is what creates the quality, depth and extraordinary response to light that transforms your home.
Paint is like coffee. The colour is the froth on the top, but it’s the quality of the rest of the cup that makes it taste good.

We use twelve exclusive pigments, all specifically selected for their colour intensity. We take colour seriously, so naturally, we only accept the very best.
