Product Description
Farrow & Ball Casein Distemper is a traditional, breathable paint ideal for heritage properties and surfaces that require a delicate, period-appropriate finish. Specially formulated for use on low-traffic interior walls and ceilings, it is particularly well-suited for lime plaster, where permeability and moisture regulation are essential. The paint’s natural casein binder delivers a beautifully soft, ultra-flat matt appearance with just 2% sheen, subtly enhancing surface textures and maintaining the character of older buildings.
This distemper is prized for its breathability, allowing moisture vapour to pass freely through the paint film, helping to prevent issues like blistering or trapped damp. It is most effective when applied by brush, which works the paint into the surface and promotes a consistent, authentic finish. Farrow & Ball Casein Distemper is a refined choice for period interiors, offering both aesthetic integrity and functional performance on breathable substrates.
