# Farrow and Ball Chemise

Farrow and Ball Chemise 216 is a muted mid-tone grey with a noticeable warm, brownish cast. Its low saturation keeps it soft rather than heavy, giving walls a grounded, gently weathered appearance. In brighter daylight, Chemise can read as a pale taupe-grey, while lower light draws out its deeper stone-like character. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a neutral needs more depth than an off-white. Pair it with chalky creams, dark wood, aged brass, linen upholstery, and charcoal accents for a restrained, layered scheme.
