Named after the picturesque East Sussex village of Firle, near Annie Sloan's home, Firle is a rich, earthy green inspired by the rolling hills and natural beauty of the South Downs. This calming, heritage-inspired shade brings warmth, depth and timeless character to furniture and interiors.
Firle is a wonderfully versatile green that works beautifully on kitchen cupboards, dressers, wardrobes, bookcases and statement furniture. Its muted, natural tone complements both traditional country homes and contemporary interiors, creating a relaxed yet sophisticated finish. Whether you're restoring an antique piece or giving modern furniture a fresh new look, Firle offers a classic colour that feels effortlessly stylish.
