Testing actual paint in situ is an essential part of the colour choosing process. Each of our shades can be bought in a tester pot. Many site-specific factors will affect the way colours appear, so it’s a good idea to test in more than one location, applying two coats over as large an area as you can.
Observe the colours in daylight and artificial light; the difference can be quite significant. Avoid positioning small swatches of several colour immediately next to one another – each will affect the way the others are read. Also, try to avoid comparing the swatch to bright white – this can be equally misleading.
Bronze Red is a timeless Victorian red with a smart sense of character. This deep shade creates an intimate atmosphere in large, airy rooms. While its name is more commonly used to describe the bronze lustre of printing inks, here it has been taken from a late 19th-century book of paint colours. Balance this historical red paint alongside similarly resonant shades, such as Hicks’ Blue or Yellow-Pink.
