Every room, each color

The difference

Read from the numbers

Duck Green leans neutral where Coat of Arms reads cool. Duck Green is a green, Coat of Arms a blue.

How they read

In their own words

Duck Green No. W55 is a deep, strong but subdued green named after the plumage of a mallard. It is a Farrow & Ball Archive colour, made to order.

Coat of Arms is a deep, gray-tempered teal — blue enough to anchor a room the way a navy would, green enough to feel alive against wood, brass and raffia. At LRV 14.7 it is a genuinely dark color, and that darkness is where its elegance lives: it recedes, it flatters everything placed against it, and it never looks like a color that is trying.
