The perfect finishing touch

Used on a door frame and have now fallen in love with this colour. It was the finishing touch in our new bathroom and I can't wait to use this gem of a colour somewhere else.

Intemporel Mouse's Back

Fidèle depuis plusieurs années à la qualité Farrow&Ball je suis un inconditionnel de Mouse's Back, indémodable, et notamment de cette version exterior qui recouvre toutes les huisseries portes, fenêtres et portails extérieurs de mon domicile...

Beautiful cookie!

Beautiful neutral that I would love anywhere! The texture is thick and it provides excellent coverage. The sample was a decent size to try over various textures and coatings.

Transformed

Great colour and good coverage transforming the outside look of the house and making it look more expensive

Excellent paint

Lovely paint, perfect colour match to our existing paint. Goes on great and gives a quality finish. Expensive but definitely worth the money!

Great paint, colour growing on me

Paint quality is really good and goes on very smoothly. Only slight reduction is because it has a much more green hue than images show. That said I am really starting to love it even though it wasn't quite as I envisaged

Easy to apply and good coverage.

Excellent coverage, I applied two coats but he first was almost sufficient. Easy to apply and quick to dry, the colour was spot on for my requirements. This was to cover up some ugly breeze block work, it had to meld in with contemporary dark metal windows as well as some larch cladding - worked a treat. Although the paint is more expensive than some, the results made it feel good value.

My favourite colour - deep and luxurious

Love the colour - painting both skirting and walls in this colour. The eggshell paint is not the easiest to apply - doesn’t go on smoothly but the final affect is lovely
