About this colour

This shade sits between blue and grey, with #7E9195 giving it a cool, slate-like character that still keeps enough colour to register as blue. In north-facing rooms it can read quieter and more shaded, with the grey element coming forward and the blue deepening. In south-facing light it softens and opens out, showing a little more freshness without turning vivid. On interior walls and ceilings in Signature Emulsion Paint, it gives a composed backdrop that works well beside pale oak, painted joinery, and upholstery in oatmeal, charcoal, or faded indigo.

How to use it

River Wandle suits sitting rooms, studies, and bedrooms where you want a restful blue that is not too crisp. It pairs neatly with off-white woodwork, dark timber, and upholstery in linen, checked wool, or deep navy.

A subdued blue-grey that stays calm and usable across changing light.

River Wandle is a wall colour, so these are the cloths that sit against it: one of them on the curtains, the paint behind. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.
