How they read
In their own wordsDuck 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.
Sea Salt is a soft green-grey that changes its mind with the light: green in a sunny room, blue-grey in a shaded one. At LRV 63 it is light enough for a whole room and quiet enough to live with for years, which is why it has become a modern classic for bedrooms and bathrooms.
