Farrow & Ball

Light Stone

No. 9

Light Stone has an LRV of 75.5 and sits in the mid-to-warm neutral range, with earthy yellow-ochre undertones that give it more depth than a standard off-white. It reflects enough light to keep rooms open while providing a grounded, slightly sandy tone on walls. It suits living rooms, kitchens, and transitional spaces where warmth without strong color is needed.

Shaded White and Slipper Satin work well on trim and ceilings to maintain tonal continuity, while Hague Blue or Railings provide firm contrast on joinery. Vert De Terre offers a muted green accent alongside it.
