Eating Room Red No.43 is Farrow & Ball's most elegant red, a rich and deep burgundy shade with a wonderfully aged feel, achieved through blackened pigmentation. Named after the red damasks popular in 19th-century dining rooms, this colour reads almost like a saturated purple when compared to brighter reds, creating an intimate and sophisticated atmosphere. Choosing the Flat Eggshell finish gives this sumptuous colour a low sheen (20%) that is also incredibly robust. It is a super-tough, water-based paint, making it scrubbable, stain-resistant, and scuff-resistant—ideal for all interior wood and metal, including high-traffic areas like skirting boards, radiators, and kitchen cabinets.
