Farrow & Ball

Cord - Paint No. 16

$8.50

Cord No. 16 — a strong earthy neutral

This earthy yellow based neutral is so called because it is a stronger version of String, both in color and use! Cord has a traditional ‘below stairs’ feel and works as the perfect kitchen unit color with String or Matchstick on the walls. The warmly aged hue has a surprising strength of color in underlit rooms, so is often used in studies and libraries.

Recommended Primer & Undercoat: Mid Tones

Complementary white: White Tie

From walls, floors and ceilings to furniture, baseboards and sheds, Farrow & Ball's range of eco-friendly paint finishes can help you transform almost any surface in your home (and outside it, too).
