Tom Howely kitchens. Any one got one? And/or can anyone shed any light on some paint colour matches for them?

I've googled the life out of this question and am not getting far - which is odd to be honestšŸ¤”

Does anyone know of a rough colour match to the Tom Howely kitchen colours range within, say, the Farrow and Ball paint range? Or any other paint range?

I've found a random blog suggesting that TH Tansy is close to FB Cornforth White and TH Lithodora is close to RB Hague Blue (because the blogger has a TH kitchen in those colours) ... which is a good start but the colours i'm interested in are the TH iris, orchid, opal, azurite, thistle and periwinkle and i can't find a mention of a match to any of them.

Can anyone help? It feels like i'm trying to find out official secrets! šŸ˜‚

Can you get a paint chart from TH?

No. I rang up and begged asked for a chart, or even a single sample, and the answer was a polite no.

I have one but I can't help with colour matches, they are their own 'special colours' and even as a purchaser you can get one tiny sample. I did have an opal sample but I binned it :(

Interested in this thread?

Nooooooooo!
You binned it the precious sample! I would have paid you to post that to me šŸ˜‚

Yes the woman on the phone said that you can only have a sample if you are ordering a kitchen.

Then after i put the phone down i thought, well, i'd need to see the colours before ordering ... ? šŸ¤”

I mean, they show you all their colours on their website well enough, but it's not the same as in the flesh. DIY kitchens - i've got a small stack of their sample doors now and the colours are great, but certainly aren't ever quite the same as they looked on screen.

You don't get the samples until you are well into the process, so I don't think you'll manage to get one unless you strike it lucky and find someone with one :(

Yes i think you're right, Changedmynameforthis55.

Thank you for your help here though 😊

Maybe someone else will spot this and have some ideas on some colour matches.

<bump> 😃
