How Ammonite behaves on a wall

Our estimate, worked out from the hex colour, puts the light reflectance value of this Farrow & Ball shade at about 69.0; Farrow & Ball's own figure may differ. At an estimated LRV of 69.0 this is a light shade that still carries colour rather than reading as off-white. It gives back most of the light in the room, which suits north-facing walls that need the help. For trim that reads as a clear edge rather than a smudge, aim about 30 LRV points away — roughly LRV 39 and below. Its red channel runs ahead of its blue, so it reads warm and will sit comfortably next to timber, brass and terracotta. Order by the code, not the name, and put a test patch on the wall before you commit — a screen cannot show you how this shade behaves in your own light.
