Tyrian Plum is a wonderfully sophisticated earthy dark reddish-purple colour with real warmth and depth.

Tyrian Plum pairs beautifully with many different colours in the Chalk Paint palette. With classic neutrals like County Grey and Old White it will evoke neo-classical elegance. Blend with Honfleur and Burgundy with gold leaf details and set against an Olive or Pale Mallow backdrop for a dramatic look. Create a dark Victorian feel with jewel tones like Knightsbridge Green, or Amsterdam Green – or a contemporary look with Coolabah Green.

The colour is named after Tyrian purple, a natural pigment extracted from sea snails in ancient times.  The dye was also called royal purple or imperial purple and greatly prized in antiquity because it was so time-consuming and expensive to harvest.

1 litre is enough to cover approximately 100 sqft which is about Rs 21 per sqft.

After painting it is essential to seal the paint to the furniture with Chalk Paint® Wax or Chalk Paint® lacquer to ensure durability.
