Wall paint - Pea Green No. 33

About Pea Green No. 33

“Pea green” is a term often found in reports on 18th-century paintwork. Our version is taken from the pale green wallpaper in the breakfast room at Calke Abbey. It sits somewhere between Calke Green and Breakfast Room Green and has a cheerful character that it imparts to any room.

A shade from the Farrow & Ball Archive

Pea Green is one of Farrow & Ball’s Archive colors: no longer on the current color card, but still available in its original quality. Every tin is mixed to order. Due to the high pigment content, the tone changes with the daylight: softer in the morning, deeper in the evening.
