With records back to the year 1773 the Little Green Dye Works of Collyhurst Wood on the outskirts of Manchester is one of the ancient industrial sites in England for the making of paints and dye solutions. The early paints would have been based on natural resins and pigments, similar in many ways to those used by the great artists of old.
The Little Greene Paint Company now use many of the materials used in the past for the preparation of the very high quality paints they make today.
60 of the colours are English Heritage colours, a result of Little Greene, English Heritage and the eminent paint historian Patrick Baty coming together to create the most authentic palette of period colours available today. These colours range from the 1700s through to the 1950s and cover the key periods of interior design: Georgian, Regency, Victorian, 1930s and 1950s.
Every can purchased means a direct donation to the work of English Heritage and the maintenance and care of some of our great national treasures, from Stonehenge to historic houses and conservations areas.
