What color is Farrow and Ball Breakfast Room Green?
Farrow and Ball Breakfast Room Green 81 is a softened mid-tone green with a noticeable grey cast and a gentle yellow-green undertone. Its muted saturation keeps it from reading too leafy or bright, giving walls a quiet, grounded color presence. In brighter daylight, the green appears clearer and slightly fresher, while lower or cooler light brings forward its greyed, earthy side. It suits kitchens, dining areas, and garden-facing rooms, particularly on cabinetry or full walls. Pair it with warm off-whites, natural oak, aged brass, and stone surfaces to emphasize its understated warmth.

What are Farrow and Ball Breakfast Room Green undertones?
Breakfast Room Green appears as a mid-light, muted yellow-green with soft, restrained saturation. In the supplied digital sample, its undertone reads as a yellow bias within the green family, which keeps it from looking like a cool blue-green. Farrow & Ball describes it as their “most cheerful” green and says it remains lively in bright sunlight and candlelight; that character fits its visibly yellow-leaning green direction. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its yellow cast, while cool daylight may make the green aspect appear clearer.

LRV of Breakfast Room Green
Breakfast Room Green has an LRV of 34.08% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 34.08%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
