Emperor’s Silk
This a bright pure red like the red silk lining of a jacket, because of the way it looks we love it used as a interior of a cupboard or drawer. it is named after the red of China.

Adding Old White in 1 part, 2 parts, 3 parts and 4 parts to lighten and bring out the true hue of the colourPainting with our paint should always be a pleasure.  (See Pallette on left)

Emperor’s Silk painted with texture, with first clear then dark wax applied in parts. Inside the drawer, Aubusson Blue. (On left)

Emperor’s Silk goes well with the following colours:  Chateau Grey & Old Violet.

Annie Sloan developed her now famous Chalk Paint to answer the need she had for a paint which would have many uses from acting like limewash to looking like old painted furniture and that had a good range of colour that could be extended by the user. This paint is very easy to work with and allows people to be creative as one doesn’t get involved with the technicalities of preparation and it also allows you to change your mind without hassle.
