Tyrian Plum – Chalk Paint by Annie Sloan

Description

Tyrian Plum Chalk Paint by Annie Sloan is a wonderfully sophisticated, earthy, aubergine colour with real warmth and depth much like a jewel. This royal purple is perfect for north-facing rooms such as dining rooms and bedrooms due to the warmth aspect of the colour, and depth of pigment.

The colour is named after Tyrian purple, a natural pigment extracted from sea snails in ancient times. The dye was also called imperial purple and was greatly prized in antiquity due to being time-consuming and expensive to harvest, perfect for royalty.
