Arles Annie Sloan Chalk Paint®
Arles is a warm, earthy yellow inspired by the rich ochres of the South of France. Sun‑soaked, rustic, and full of depth, it brings instant warmth to furniture and interiors. Think golden fields, terracotta villages, and the soft glow of Provençal light.
How Arles Works in Real Homes
This is a yellow with real substance — rich, grounded, and beautifully versatile. It adds warmth without being too bright, making it perfect for rustic, Mediterranean, farmhouse, and vintage styling. Arles also pairs beautifully with both cool and warm tones, giving you endless creative combinations.
For a vibrant beach‑house look, pair Arles with Florence, Svenska Blue, and Old White. The mix of warm ochre and cool coastal tones creates a lively, sun‑washed palette that feels fresh and uplifting.
Creative Ways to Use Arles
Arles is stunning on textured pieces, carved details, and rustic furniture where its earthy depth can shine. It’s also a brilliant colour for retro styling — pair it with Louis Blue, Oxford Navy, and Honfleur for a nostalgic, mid‑century feel.
For a hotter, spicier palette, combine Arles with Barcelona Orange and Paprika Red. Add a touch of Capri Pink for an unexpected kick of energy.
