Farrow & Ball

Pea Flower Tea

No. CB12

Pea Flower Tea by Farrow & Ball is a saturated, medium-depth blue with cool undertones and no strong green or violet lean. Its LRV of 46.6 puts it in the mid-range, dark enough to anchor a feature wall yet light enough to use across an entire room without making the space feel closed in. It suits bedrooms, home offices, and dining rooms where a definite colour statement is wanted.

Pea Flower Tea combines effectively with Farrow & Ball shades such as Wimborne White, Blackened, Pavilion Gray, Hague Blue, and Stiffkey Blue.
