Colour Pairing
Colour Pairing
Hackney Carriage pairs seamlessly with Brighton Breeze, a crisp, light blue, to inject a splash of brightness that contrasts beautifully with its dark tones, ideal for a modern take on the bold contrasts popular in Art Deco designs. For a more muted and traditional pairing, consider London Fog, a soft taupe, which softens the intensity of Hackney Carriage, creating a luxurious feel reminiscent of a foggy Victorian London morning.

An excellent product. Well packed and personalised note added.
Matched well with charcoal table legs and chairs from The Cotswold Company. Will buy again.
Easy to apply. Dries absolutely flat and dries quickly. Has a lovely soft finish, slight sheen but not glossy. Seems really tough. Love it
I absolutely loved this paint! A beautiful colour and perfect finish! So easy to apply and looks amazing! Thank you!
This is an absolute beautiful black, the coverage is amazing and such a stunning sheen.
