Farrow & Ball Multi Surface 750ml Dead Flat Wainscot No.55

Farrow & Ball Dead Flat is a multi-surface, ultra flat matt finish for walls, woodwork and metal, with added durability. Dead Flat was developed by Farrow & Ball over 70 years ago to recreate the 18th century ‘flatted lead’ paint effect. This traditional method originally involved teams of artisans painstakingly layering coats of paint to build a deep, rich and pigmented matt look, which was often reserved for the formal reception rooms of a house due to the work involved. Which you can now have in any room you choose to create your very own castle. Now innovative technology from the experts at Farrow & Ball have reinterpreted Dead Flat again, with a breakthrough in chemistry delivering the celebrated historic richness of colour combined with an incredibly durable paint. This easy-to-use, low odour and quick drying formulation can be painted onto walls, woodwork and metal, making it the ultimate choice for any room in modern homes. Bombazine, a blended fabric of wool worsted and silk, comes from the word 'bombycinus', used to refer both to something silken and to the colour of the silk moth – a creamy pale yellow just like this one. Bombazine sits between Ringwold Ground and Farrow's Cream in the Farrow & Ball palette, and creates a fresh feel combined with New White.
