Drawing Room Blue No.253 is a rich, clean blue that sits between the liveliness of Pitch Blue and the depth of navy Stiffkey Blue, giving it a strong, graphic, and intense character. Inspired by the formal rooms of historical homes, this shade pairs strikingly with crisp white woodwork like All White, or with equally strong colours such as Pitch Black. Applying it in the Flat Eggshell finish provides a low-sheen, satin look with a 20% sheen level, which is both highly durable and washable. Flat Eggshell is Farrow & Ball's tougher formulation for interior wood, metal, and concrete, making this beautiful blue an excellent choice for hardworking surfaces like skirting boards, kitchen cabinets, and doors.
