One Day...
Rated this place:
Farrow & Ball is a bit of a dream of mine....a someday maybe. They provide traditionally crafted paints and wallpapers. What I love is their commitment to traditional, eco-friendly methods. Each batch of paint is crafted from ingredients such as chalk, lime putty, linseed oil (basically flax seed oil) and China clay. They offer a few varieties of paint that contain little or no VOCs. But my biggest Farrow & Ball dream is the wallpaper. This is no ordinary wallpaper. Each roll of wallpaper is hand printed by block (seriously, hand painted) using water based paint. Many of the designs are based on traditional prints and some are even used for the "restoration of Great British houses." As you can imagine, this type of craftsmanship does not come cheap. The minimum order is 3 rolls of wall paper with one roll costing somewhere between $170 and $280. To do a whole room? Nonsense, but just think of that beautiful accent wall. At this point though I'm thinking of hanging the five sample sheets I have around my room and calling it my wall accents. One day....
