Wall paint - Cream No. 44

About Cream No. 44

This slightly darker alternative to our fresher Farrow's Cream gains its complexity from the ocher yellow and black pigments it contains.

A shade from the Farrow & Ball Archive

Cream is one of Farrow & Ball's archive colors: no longer in the current color card, but still available in original quality. Each tin is mixed to order. Due to the high pigmentation, the shade changes with the daylight: softer in the morning, deeper in the evening.

Combine like the pros

The official complementary white for Cream is White Tie, ideal for ceilings, mouldings, and adjoining surfaces. Color schemes recommended by Farrow & Ball: London Clay & Oval Room Blue · White Tie & New White.
