Anyone got Oxford Stone & London Stone

7 replies

The very helpful F&B experts have been advising me on paint colours.

They're come up with these two which I'd never even considered. I've painted some samples & they look great together but I'm a bit nervous of it looking brown.
Any comments?

Oxford stone looks amazing in our bathroom, more warm than brown. Always gets loads of compliments

Thanks London, I'm looking at the sample & it's gorgeous. The London Stone is more brown but it's for panelling, skirting & the fireplace so there won't be too much of it.

I've been wondering about these colours! Slightly unnerved at the thought of the brown, too. Can you say what the experts said about these colours, East?

The Oxford is a lovely neutrally, very slightly mushroom that looks very tasteful. The London is a very slightly browner beigey colour that's about 3 shades darker. They describe it as 'warm neutral'.
I think I'm going to go with it, it'll go with almost any soft furnishings.
There's too much grey in my home already.

Think they are lovely colours to live with, warm and soft. I think I'm going to use them too! Wish us both luck!

My samples have dried out now & look heavenly. We shall have very tasteful rooms!
