Kitchen cabinet colour - moving from Hague Blue

I’ve had Hague Blue cabinets for 6 years and getting a respray in a couple of weeks. Bored of blue and so it’s a toss up between Farrow and Ball sage and Skimming stone. I’ve added an AI mockup of my actual cabinets in Skimming Stone. Does anyone have this colour in a Matt finish and if not, any recommendations for colours which have worked out well?

Oak worktops which will also be changed in time to white quartz, but not yet and probably not in the life of this respray.

thanks

I think skimming stone is pretty dated, but I’ve had it on the living room walls for well over ten years now. I suppose it’s neutral-ish for cupboards and might be OK. The problem with it is that the colour does change according to the light you have, if you’re talking proper F&B. It can look sludgy violet or sludgy green. It’s not cream.

Yes these are my thoughts exactly Op.

I think you could try cream but you need to really move to cream: skimming stone is a murky greenish beige.

Save up until you can re do it properly

We had our old kitchen resprayed in Dove Tale, which I think is a lighter shade of Elephant’s Breath. I’m not generally someone who likes grey at all, but it had just enough of a warm lilac tint that it felt acceptable to me.
