Farrow & Ball Tunsgate Green No.250

Tunsgate Green No.250 is a light green from the Farrow & Ball Archive Collection, with warm yellow undertones. It sits in the light band of the Farrow & Ball palette. It reflects a generous amount of light, which makes it a dependable choice for north-facing rooms, hallways and smaller spaces that need to feel open.

Using Tunsgate Green in a scheme

James White No.2010 is the white to run with it — it shares the same undertone, so ceilings, cornices and skirtings stay in the same key. For a scheme built on one colour, step up to All White No.2005 on walls and down to French Gray No.18 on joinery.

Sampling this colour

Tunsgate Green sits outside Farrow & Ball's 132-colour signature palette, so it is not produced as a 100ml sample pot. Call in and we can show you the colour on a hand-painted card before you order.

Available finishes

• Dead Flat — ultra-matt walls, woodwork and metal (2% sheen)
• Estate Emulsion — interior walls and ceilings in low-traffic rooms (2% sheen)
• Modern Emulsion — washable, scuff-proof walls and ceilings in kitchens and bathrooms (7% sheen)
• Flat Eggshell — interior wood, metal, concrete and floors (20% sheen)
• Modern Eggshell — hard-wearing wood and metal, including floors and staircases (40% sheen)

Priming and light

Prime bare or previously painted surfaces with Farrow & Ball White & Light Tones Primer & Undercoat. Matching the primer to the depth of Tunsgate Green gives truer colour and usually saves you a topcoat. Under the flat grey light we get for much of the year, pale shades lean cooler than they look on a card. Test the brightest and dullest wall in the room.

Made to order

Tunsgate Green is a Farrow & Ball Archive colour. Archive colours are mixed to order specifically for you rather than held in stock, so please allow extra time and note that they cannot be returned or exchanged once mixed.
