What color is Farrow and Ball Tunsgate Green?

Farrow and Ball Tunsgate Green 250 is a very pale, muted green with a noticeable creamy yellow cast, reading almost like soft green-tinted ivory in bright light. Its low saturation keeps it gentle on large wall areas, while the warm undertone prevents it from feeling stark or icy. In daylight, this shade can appear light and airy; under warmer evening lighting, its creamy side becomes more pronounced. Use it in kitchens, bedrooms, or hallways where a quiet wash of color is preferable to plain white. Natural oak, aged brass, woven linen, and warm off-whites make especially fitting companions.

What are Farrow and Ball Tunsgate Green undertones?

Tunsgate Green reads as a very light, muted yellow-green, closer to an off-white than to a strongly saturated green. Within that pale green family, the supplied digital sample leans slightly yellow rather than blue, which gives it a softer, warmer cast. Farrow & Ball describes it as a “fresh delicate green,” a description that aligns with its visible light green character rather than suggesting a deep or vivid shade. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its yellow cast, while cool daylight may make its green side appear a little clearer.
