Can you buy fired earth in stores or only online?

Lots of paint shops (incl Dulux, Johnstons, Leyland) will do copies of F&B colours for cheaper prices. It's basically dulux-type paint but in an F&B colour.

I'm thinking manna ash,with amethyst on the woodwork (doors/window frames)

Hoping it will look warm and NOT pink....what do you think?

But do get a small pot of the "copy" colour first to try - sometimes the copies look quite different and sometimes they are spot on.

Or pearl ashes....with Andaman sea
