About Fowler Pink No. 39

A bright orange pink. The colorist John Fowler was particularly fond of this version of pink and used it frequently on wallpapers.

A shade from the Farrow & Ball Archive

Fowler Pink is part of the Farrow & Ball archive collection: 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.
