Matching farrow and ball to aga

[Netguru]

I have a cream aga and want the kitchen painted to match as the work surfaces and floor will give enough contrast. Does anyone have any idea on best match? I only have online versions of the colour chart and am a bit scared to base my choice on that alone.

This might be helpful.

Whatever you do, don't choose a colour based on a colour chart. We are redecorating the whole house and I am going through so many sample pots as the charts bear no relation to what the paint will look like on your walls. You will have to paint samples in your kitchen and examine them at different times of the day with natural and artificial light, esp with F&B. Expensive though it is, it will save you time and money in the end.

LOL a true MN thread.

A very middle-class dilemma :)

I am actually going to take a screen grab of this

In all seriousness, on the F&B site you can buy a colour book where they have painted with the actual paint onto card and they're largeish, so gives a much more accurate representation.

I would do that, pick the 3 best, then get sample pots of each.
