Farrow & Ball paints have resided in Dorset, England since John Farrow, and fellow paint pioneer, Richard Ball first founded the company in 1946. Their passion for making paint to original formulations, using only the finest ingredients and age-old methods.
Formulated from high levels of pigment, rich resin binders, and other highly reflective key ingredients to produce their immersive depth of colour. Strict quality control procedures ensure that every batch of paint is scrupulously tested before it even reaches the tin.
One of the more distinguishing attributes of Farrow & Ball is our paint names. Always distinct and rooted in the past. Names create a lot of conversation! Generally these names are inspired by nature and the Dorset surroundings, found in historic houses or named after friends of Farrow & Ball.
