Annie Sloan Versailles Chalk Paint is a soft yellow-green inspired by fine old French furniture and gilded doors. Its delicate, sophisticated character makes it a beautiful choice for vintage furniture, antique pieces and elegant country-style interiors.Versailles is a gentle yellow-green furniture paint that can change character depending on the colours it is paired with. Its soft, muted appearance makes it particularly versatile, working equally well on traditional furniture and more modern pieces.Use Versailles on cupboards, dressers, tables, chairs, sideboards and other furniture when you want to create a refined, understated finish with a distinctly French feel.
Versailles is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a soft yellow-green furniture paint with a gentle, elegant appearance rather than a bright or strongly saturated green.
For best results, apply Annie Sloan Versailles Chalk Paint with a Chalk Paint Brush or Flat Brush. Chalk Paint can be applied to a wide range of surfaces without extensive preparation, making it particularly useful for furniture painting and upcycling.
Versailles can be used as a single colour to create a soft, sophisticated finish or combined with other Chalk Paint colours to change the overall character of the piece.
It works particularly well on cupboards, dressers, tables, chairs and sideboards. On antique or traditional furniture, its soft yellow-green tone can highlight mouldings and decorative details without overpowering them.
For a vintage or aged appearance, allow the paint to dry and then lightly sand selected areas around edges, corners and decorative details. This creates gentle wear and can give furniture a more naturally aged appearance.
Versailles can also be used with darker waxes to add depth and emphasise decorative details. Clear Wax can be used when you want to protect the paint while retaining its original colour.
Once the paint has dried, protect your finished furniture with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Wax or Lacquer. Wax is ideal for indoor furniture, while Lacquer provides a more durable protective finish where required.
One litre of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint covers approximately 13 square metres. Actual coverage will vary depending on the surface and application.
Please be aware that colours can appear differently on screen. For the most accurate representation of Versailles, we recommend using a hand-painted Annie Sloan colour card or a 120ml tester pot before starting your project.
