About Us

A family-run business, with our own factory in the United Kingdom, we are the only British paint maker still producing a complete range of traditional and modern finishes.

We are an independent, British paint manufacturer, committed to the socially and environmentally responsible production of high-quality paints and wallpapers. Our paints and wallpapers represent 300 years of decorative history. Referencing the key periods of interior design, from the 17th century to the late 20th century, we’re committed to an ongoing research programme, and are proud to breathe new life into the best colours and patterns from the past.

Double Drenching

‘Double Drenching’ is the name we have given to dramatically transforming a space by painting two or more related colours on all available surfaces to achieve an even more accomplished ‘wow factor’ in a room. This new approach is a way to confidently embrace and combine colours that might not typically be seen and used alongside one another in a single scheme.
