What color is Farrow and Ball India Yellow?

Farrow and Ball India Yellow 66 is a warm, mid-depth golden yellow with a softened ochre cast rather than a sharp, citrusy brightness. Its muted amber tone gives it enough weight for kitchen cabinetry, a dining room, or a sunlit hallway. In strong daylight, India Yellow appears clearer and more golden; under evening lamps, it settles into a deeper honeyed tan. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm timber, aged brass, or earthy olive and clay accents for a grounded scheme. Used on a single door, window trim, or a built-in, this shade brings a concentrated hit of warmth without reading overly bright.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 37.05%, 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.
