Farrow and Ball Flat Eggshell Paint - Cook's Blue 237 - 750ml - Outlet

Colour: Cook's Blue 237 by Farrow & Ball
Finish: Flat Eggshell
Size: 750ml

Cook's Blue takes its inspiration from the striking and deeply saturated hue found in the cook's closet at Calke Abbey, where the walls had remained undisturbed for decades. This vibrant, richly pigmented blue evokes a sense of history and character, making it a bold choice for kitchens and outdoor dining spaces. Interestingly, the bright tone is also thought to have the practical benefit of deterring flies, making it an ideal colour for spaces where food is prepared and enjoyed.

However, its appeal extends far beyond these practical uses. Cook’s Blue is equally at home throughout the rest of the house, bringing a fresh, energizing feel to any room. Whether used on walls, cabinetry, or furniture, this striking shade offers a timeless yet modern look, adding both personality and charm to a variety of interiors.

Farrow & Ball Flat Eggshell is a super-tough, low-sheen paint finish that delivers both durability and elegance. With its subtle 20% sheen, it offers a beautifully refined surface that’s ideal for cabinetry, interior woodwork, and walls where a sophisticated yet practical finish is desired. Designed to resist stains, scuffs, and knocks, Flat Eggshell keeps spaces looking fresh and flawless even in busy homes.

This advanced formula provides quick-drying performance and exceptional hardness from day one, meaning surfaces can be used sooner without risk of sticking or marking. Compared to Estate Eggshell, it is up to four times harder and offers two to three times better block resistance, making it one of Farrow & Ball’s most durable finishes to date. Despite its toughness, the paint flows and levels beautifully for a smooth, even result with exceptional opacity in just two coats.

Flat Eggshell is also crafted with minimal VOCs, bio-based ingredients, and is A+ rated for indoor air quality, ensuring it’s as kind to your home as it is to the environment.
