Inspired by the softly aged painted furniture found in French châteaux and elegant Swedish interiors, Old White is a timeless off-white with gentle grey undertones. Calm, understated and effortlessly elegant, this versatile shade creates a beautifully authentic finish that's perfect for both traditional and contemporary homes.
Old White is ideal for transforming dressers, wardrobes, kitchen cupboards, bedside tables, dining furniture and decorative accessories. Its soft neutral tones work beautifully alongside natural wood, stone, linen and metallic finishes, creating light, welcoming interiors without the starkness of a brilliant white. Whether you're restoring a treasured antique or giving modern furniture a classic new look, Old White delivers a finish that's sophisticated, fresh and full of character.
