Wall paint - Duck Green No. W55

About Duck Green No. W55

Duck Green is a true forest green and provides a very contemporary alternative to dark grey or blue tones. This dark green looks just as stunning on wood as it does on walls, and it looks particularly great on kitchen cabinetry in Farrow & Ball’s Modern Eggshell finish.

Color Impact & Light

Duck Green brings the depth of traditional country kitchens into the home and appears almost black-green by candlelight. Due to its high pigmentation, the shade changes with the daylight: softer in the morning, deeper in the evening.
