Product Description

Farrow & Ball Red Earth No.64 is a warm, light terracotta red named after the soil beneath our feet. A rich mix of red and yellow pigments gives it an earthy warmth that suits homes both old and new.

Farrow & Ball pair Red Earth with Dimity as its complementary white. Their suggested schemes combine it with Green Smoke and Jitney, Skimming Stone and Elephant's Breath, or London Clay.

What colour is Red Earth?

Red Earth is a warm terracotta red. Farrow & Ball describe it as a rich blend of red and yellow pigments with a warm, earthy feel.

Where to use Farrow & Ball Red Earth No.64

Farrow & Ball say Red Earth is often best used in smaller spaces. It responds strongly to the changing light through the day, becoming deeper and cosier as the sun goes down.

Choose Estate Emulsion or Modern Emulsion for walls and ceilings, Dead Flat for a completely flat look across walls and woodwork, and Flat Eggshell, Modern Eggshell or Full Gloss for woodwork and cabinets. For exteriors, choose Exterior Masonry or Exterior Eggshell for breathable, weather-resistant performance. Casein Distemper is also available in this colour.
