Farrow & Ball

Chine Green

No. 35

Chine Green is a cool-leaning green with distinct gray undertones that keep it from reading too saturated. At an LRV of 31.2, it absorbs more light than it reflects, giving it a deeper, more enclosed feel suited to studies, feature walls, or rooms where a lower light level is acceptable. The gray base allows it to sit comfortably alongside other muted tones.

Farrow & Ball's Light Gray and Old White work well as trim or ceiling colours to maintain contrast. For a darker, more layered scheme, Hague Blue or Brinjal can be introduced, and Pale Powder or Borrowed Light will soften the overall composition.
