Farrow and Ball Paint

simbabimba writes in Home & Garden

Can anyone tell me where the nearest Farrow and Ball agent is. I have been told that there is a shop in Grasse selling this product but i can't seem to be able to find it?
Many thanks

La Jolie Maison in NIce. They have a shop at 7 Rue Verdi in NIce and also one round the corner from there, can't remember the street name. They have lots in stock and can order as well.

However, they don't keep a large stock & ordering is only done once a week so, if you time it badly, you have to wait 10 days for your paint. We found it was quicker & cheaper to order it from the UK & have it shipped.

Stephanie is quite right!
Having had to order a large amount of F&B we also discovered it is half the price from the website - order online - then get shipped to france.
Be aware though, F&B is almost impossible to touch up so you would have to do the whole section in order to lose the 'touch up'!
hope this helps!

Just to come back to this, as, coincidentally, I have just ordered some F & B paint. I didn't use the website, but ordered by email through the Chelsea showroom directly as I wanted some advice as well. I ordered Wednesday & the paint was with me by UPS the next day- & all €50 cheaper than if I had used the French website (The order was GBP120 inc delivery)- & goodness knows how long I would have had to wait if I'd used the French site. Fantastic service & I can't recommend (Robert at) F&B Chelsea enough.
I am all in favour of generally ordering locally where possible, but it makes way more sense to order F&B form the UK, both in terms of efficiency & cost. Happy painting,Stephanie
