Farrow & Ball

Shallot

No. CB3

Shallot by Farrow & Ball is a mid-toned pink with noticeable mauve undertones, sitting at an LRV of 68.8. At this reflectance level it reads as a soft, muted pink that still carries enough color presence to define a room without darkening it. The mauve shift keeps it from leaning too warm or too sugary.

It works well in bedrooms, dressing rooms, or hallways where a quiet wash of color is needed. It sits comfortably alongside Farrow & Ball shades such as Peignoir, Calamine, Cornforth White, School House White, and Pelt.
