What color is Farrow and Ball Vert De Terre?
Farrow and Ball Vert De Terre 234 is a muted, mid-light green with a noticeable grey cast and a soft yellowed undertone. Its low saturation keeps it earthy rather than leafy, giving walls a gently weathered appearance in daylight. In brighter rooms, this color can read as a pale mineral green, while lower or cooler light brings its grey base forward. Use it on kitchen cabinetry, a garden-facing sitting room, or painted woodwork where a quiet color is wanted without moving into neutral territory. Pair Vert De Terre with warm white, natural oak, aged brass, linen, and clay-toned ceramics for a grounded finish.

What are Farrow and Ball Vert De Terre undertones?
Vert De Terre is a mid-light, very muted green with a soft, greyed character rather than a strong or bright green presence. In the supplied digital sample, it leans subtly toward yellow, which can make the green read a little earthy or olive-leaning, though that bias is slight. Farrow & Ball describes it as a delicate green reminiscent of green earth, which fits its visibly softened main green family. Warm artificial light may bring out its yellow-leaning cast, while cool daylight may make it appear a little cleaner and greyer.

LRV of Vert De Terre
Vert De Terre has an LRV of 46.49% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 46.49%, 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.
