Unlike our gloss and silk finishes that are great for reflecting light, matt absorbs light creating a richer look. Our Padstow range is available in timeless kitchen colours; Highland Stone, Dust Grey, Highland Stone, Scots Grey, Farringdon Grey, Light Grey and our brand new shade, Moonlight Blue.

These colours work wonderfully when mixed together and are equally as beautiful when used as a stand-alone colour.
