What color is Farrow and Ball Minster Green?

Farrow and Ball Minster Green 224 is a muted, mid-depth green with a noticeable grey cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its low-key, slightly earthy character can read cooler in north-facing light, while warmer daylight brings out the softened olive side of the color. Use it on kitchen cabinets, a study wall, or painted woodwork where a darker color can add definition without looking black. Minster Green pairs well with chalky off-whites, warm putty neutrals, aged brass, natural oak, and stone surfaces. On an exterior door or garden-facing joinery, this shade sits comfortably alongside brick, slate, and weathered timber.

What are Farrow and Ball Minster Green undertones?

The supplied digital sample reads as a muted, mid-depth green with low saturation. It has a slight yellow-green, olive-leaning bias, which gives the green an earthy rather than blue-toned character. In warm artificial light, that yellow-olive lean may be more noticeable, while cool daylight can make the green appear cleaner and a little less yellow.
