Paint for woodwork to go with Farrow & Ball walls?

[wherearemychickens]

We've got Skimming Stone kitchen units with Wimborne white on the walls. Now stuck for what we should do on all the woodwork (doesn't have to be F&B) - so skirting, architraves & doors). Does anyone have any recommendations? The rest of the house also needs woodwork painting, and there we've mostly gone with Dulux Jasmine white on the walls.

I personally, have Dulux brilliant white gloss. Probably not a popular choice on MN but I love the way it contrasts with the F&B colours. I was just doing my skirting today against a Hague Blue wall. It looks fantastic but my interior is modern so it's ok. I wonder what period your house is & what overall look you're going for with your furniture etc? Try & tie a colour into that.

We’ve used Wimborne white eggshell on all our woodwork

It's a 1950s house but I would say the look we are going for is fairly modern. Is it possible to get Dulux to do a gloss colour match of farrow & ball colours?

Johnstone's Decorator centres have all the codes for copying F&B shades and you can have any finish of paint. I'd just go with white satinwood.

White eggshell has a lovely finish, it's a matt finish which would probably go well with F&B. We used Dulux Trade.
For the sake of the next owners, step away from the gloss

Never never never get F&B colours matched - it doesn't work. Believe me, I know from experience. My navy wall was colour-matched by Johnston's - totally different colour, still navy, but a more violet rather than teal navy. It threw the whole room off. My biggest disaster was the hallway. I asked the decorator to colour-match F&B James white which has a very subtle green hint. I came back to primrose yellow!! I kid you not. & we needed 10L of that - £££ mistake. I had a heart attack when I saw the colour. Promptly went out & bought the real stuff & there's no comparison. The way the pigments reflect light in F&B is something else just beautiful. If you're worried about durability you can use their modern emulsion which is wipeable. F&B also have excellent customer service. When I had difficulty applying their darker colours they bent over backwards to help me & also gave me free paint.

We had satin paint made to match the slightly aged glosswork in our house (we were building so took a piece of old skirting to the shop). The colour is ever so slightly off white (I think it has a name - Bedford white). It’s matched with a variety of different neutral shades through the house and looks great. We will be using it for all woodwork in our new house.

For everyone who trumpets genuine F&B as the only paint there's someone who's been pleased with a match.

The price of F&B paint is outrageous.
