Product Description

Farrow & Ball Eddy No.301 is a calm, soft green named after the circular currents that wild water swimmers enjoy as a natural jacuzzi. Farrow & Ball describe it as delicate in tone without crossing into pastel.

Farrow & Ball pair Eddy with School House White as its complementary white. It sits at the lightest end of the French Gray and Treron family, and their suggested schemes combine it with French Gray and Treron, School House White and Wimborne White, or Stirabout and Blanc De Chine.
