Annie Sloan Chalk Paint® colour, Rococo White is the softest white with a touch of Antionette to give it just a hint of pink. It is a pretty neutral white that’s the essence of Rococo – the romantic style of art, architecture and decoration that began in France in the 1730s. Rococo style combined white and pastel colours with curves, gilding and frescoes and was pretty and gentle.
Rococo White is reminiscent of the softest pink of the inside of a shell – delicate and pretty. The word rococo comes from the French word ‘rocaille” which was a method of decorating grottos and fountains using shells and pebbles.
Rococo White has a frivolity and lightness about it. Use it with gold to create the opulence of an 18th century palace (think of Marie Antoinette’s dairy in the Palace of Versailles!). Mix Rococo White with other pastel colours like Antoinette, Louis Blue, Duck Egg Blue, Versailles and Svenska Blue and greys like Paris Grey and Chicago Grey. It works with a neutral like French Linen for a more traditional country house look or with gentle muted greens like Coolabah and Capability Green.
Annie Sloan Chalk Paint™ is available in 120ml and 1 litre tins. 1 litre is enough to cover approximately 13 square metres.
