Selvedge No. 306 by Farrow & Ball is a laid-back blue—a lighter, less grey version of the popular De Nimes. Named after the highly prized denim woven on a shuttle loom to produce closed edges, Selvedge has a familiar, easygoing character that feels relaxed and lived-in.
It’s particularly good in low-light spaces, creating a friendly atmosphere that’s perfect for bedrooms and rooms you use in the evening. Pair Selvedge with deeper accents like Inchyra Blue or Hopper Head to add contrast and definition while keeping the overall scheme calm and approachable.
Recommended Primer & Undercoat: Mid Tones.
Complementary white: Shadow White.
