A deep chocolate brown
This warm drab has a two-part name combining ‘salon’, the small outer room off a drawing room, with a term that describes a colour as lacking in brightness. The richness of this chocolate brown is instantly appealing, effortlessly creating a modern look or classic 19th century feel. Salon Drab works as a dark accompaniment to both the Red Based and Contemporary Neutrals.

Key features
Audited and ethical supply chain
Making the very best paint and paper possible starts well before the factory. That’s why we’re meticulous about who we work with. From sourcing raw materials to delivery, all of our suppliers have to follow our strict Code of Conduct.
Being a manufacturer puts us in a privileged position: we know exactly what goes into our products and exactly where it comes from, all the way back to raw materials. Not all paint brands make paint from scratch, they buy a base paint and add a colour tint. These brands are one step further away from the process and have to try and investigate how their suppliers’ suppliers behave.
