The colour I chose for the bedside table was Farrow and Ball Pigeon. Choosing a colour for the bedside table transformation was a tricky bunny.
Like picking up a bar of slippery soap in the bath.
I scoured paint sample after paint sample to find the perfect shade. But as soon as I saw this one, held up against our bedroom colour (Farrow and Ball Light Blue) and our mahogany bed, I knew it was the one.
It called to me.
And the siren-like call of Farrow and Ball paints is pretty hard to resist.
I hope these Case Study paint posts will save you time when looking for paints, showing a variety of pictures that show Farrow and Ball Pigeon in different lights.
Although, I have to say it wasn't wholly unenjoyable....I rather like all that fussing and sighing over paint...
The colour changes from very grey with a tinsiest hint of bluey-green to a grey-green in stronger sun.
Very much like a pigeon......?!...I'll get back to you on that one...
It's a beautiful colour that definitely leans towards the greener end of grey.....
....but has enough blue in it to give depth and interest.
Ignore it at your peril...
