What color is Farrow and Ball Blooth Pink?

Farrow and Ball Blooth Pink 9806 is a light, warm pink with a softly muted, peach-leaning cast. Its gentle saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet, giving walls a powdered blush appearance rather than a bright rosy finish. In direct daylight, this color can look clearer and more coral-tinged, while lower or warmer evening light brings out its softer beige-pink side. Use Blooth Pink in a bedroom, dressing area, or small sitting room, or apply it to cabinetry for a quiet wash of color. Creamy off-whites, pale oak, terracotta pottery, and brushed brass provide especially natural companions.

What are Farrow and Ball Blooth Pink undertones?

Blooth Pink is a mid-light, soft pink with clear color presence rather than a pale blush. The supplied digital sample reads primarily red-pink with a gentle warm, yellow-leaning bias. Farrow & Ball describes it as a “yellowed pink,” which aligns with the visible warmth within its main pink family. Warm artificial light may make that warmth more noticeable, while cool daylight can make the pink appear a little cleaner and less yellow-leaning.
