Shaded White

Farrow & Ball

No. 201

Shaded White is the deepest step in Farrow & Ball's traditional white scale, a stone-colored off-white that reads more like pale putty than white on the wall. That depth makes it a classic cabinetry and millwork color, often run under lighter whites like School House White or Slipper Satin on the walls above. It brings the softness of a neutral with none of the yellow of old creams.

Is Shaded White warm or cool?

Shaded White is warm, with green-gray stone undertones that keep it earthy rather than creamy. The LRV is approximately 63, so despite the name it behaves like a light neutral, not a white. In shadow it deepens noticeably toward greige, which is where the name comes from. It suits well-lit rooms and cabinetry, and it pairs more naturally with muted greens than with crisp blues.

Why does Shaded White look different on screen than on the wall?

Screens emit light while paint reflects it, so a hex code cannot capture how lighting, sheen, and surrounding colors shift paint in a real room. Treat #D5CFC0 as accurate for digital design work, and use physical samples for final approval. Farrow & Ball does not publish official hex codes, so this value is a close third-party approximation.

What LRV does Shaded White have?

Shaded White has a Light Reflectance Value of approximately 63, meaning it reflects about 63% of visible light. That places it among lighter colors that keep rooms feeling open and bright.
