When you want to paint knots and lining on wooden houses from the 18th to the 19th century, it is good to know that there were different degrees of refraction of the white paint during different eras.

The most common was 30% green umber in the 18th century, which gives a distinct limestone gray shade. During the 19th century, the fashion lightened and the "white" color often ended up around 15% green umber.

At the turn of the century, however, only light, soft white was in fashion, corresponding to 2% green umber.

For Interior or Exterior Painting

Regardless of whether you are going to paint facades, windows, doors or other surfaces outdoors, or walls, ceilings, joinery and furniture indoors, linseed oil paint is an excellent choice.

Minimal impact on nature

Minimal impact on nature

Common plastic paint causes 58% of microplastics in the oceans . Linseed oil paint is an environmental alternative based on natural ingredients.

Open to diffusion

Open to diffusion

Linseed oil paint is open to diffusion, which means it allows the wood to breathe and regulate moisture naturally, unlike modern synthetic paints that lay down like a dense plastic film. This reduces the risk of moisture damage and preserves the structure of the wood.
