Farrow & Ball has introduced 12 new colors to its iconic palette, marking its first refresh since 2022.
The new shades, released on February 27, replace a dozen existing colors, which were moved to the brand’s archived collection.farrow and ball scallop dupe, farrow and ball marmelo dupe
(If you’re a Farrow & Ball fan, you’ll know the British paint company maintains a tightly curated collection of just 132 shades. I’ll be writing about the newly archived colors very soon.)rrow and ball scallop dupe, farrow and ball naperon dupe
The latest paint colors take cues from everyday household objects, evoking a sense of comfort, nostalgia, and practicality.
Imagine colors inspired by garden tools, candle snuffers, cleaning cloths, and jam jars.farrow and ball scallop dupe
The result? A palette of earthy tones designed to feel warm, familiar, and effortlessly inviting.farrow and ball new colours 2025
It’s “all about things which are quite, quite small,” says Joa Studholme, Farrow & Ball’s color curator, who, along with Creative Director Charlotte Crosby, mixed the colors herself at a kitchen table.

Inspired by the tarnished brass of a traditional candle snuffer, Douter is a blend of Green Smoke and Inchyra Blue, two of Farrow & Ball’s most popular paint colors.
This combination was very much deliberate, says Studholme, explaining that Douter fills a gap in Farrow & Ball’s core palette.farrow and ball kakelugn, farrow and ball naperon
The closest Farrow & Ball Douter dupes and matches are:
- Benjamin Moore Caldwell Green
- Behr Heritage Park
- Sherwin-Williams Basil
Interestingly, I discuss all three paint colors in my review of Green Smoke.
If you live in Australia, Dulux Armada also bears a close resemblance to Douter.farrow and ball new colours 2025

Marmelo is a mellow burnt orange paint color named after the marmelo quince. After seeing it in person, I can confirm it’s reminiscent of marmalade (in the best way).
“I can’t help but think about the bountiful shelves of a larder bursting with jars of pickles and jams when I look at it,” says Studholme. “It’s warming and restorative.”farrow and ball scallop dupe, farrow and ball marmelo dupe

A deep green with prominent brown undertones, Reduced Green is similar to Farrow & Ball Cardamom, but darker.

Scallop, a soft off-white with delicate pink undertones, is a lighter version of cult favorite Dead Salmon.
Its name follows a Farrow & Ball tradition of christening paint colors after seafood. Smoked Trout and Potted Shrimp, anyone?
Scallop has taken the Internet by storm—easily generating the most buzz of any of Farrow & Ball’s new colors—and it lives up to the hype. This color is really beautiful, and versatile.farrow and ball naperon dupe

(Sizing is similar to starch, but not as strong. Thank you, American Drycleaner magazine.)farrow and ball kakelugn dupe, farrow and ball scallop dupe
In very bright light, Sizing appears white. It makes a lovely trim color paired with Kakelugn.farrow and ball scallop dupe

Broccoli Brown, in particular, is a gorgeous shade of warm, stony brown, and I was slightly surprised when it was archived.farrow ball scallop dupe, marmelo dupe, kakelugn dupe

My color consultation clients can’t get enough of green, particularly colors such as Green Smoke, Pigeon, Mizzle, and Bancha.
Joa Studholme has a personal attachment to Sap Green. She used the bold color, along with Farrow & Ball Pink Cup in her own home, above.farrow and ball scallop, farrow and ball marmelo
