Svenska Blue Annie Sloan Chalk Paint®
Svenska Blue is a crisp, cool blue‑grey inspired by the soft, atmospheric tones found throughout Swedish manor houses of the 17th and 18th century. It’s gentle, calming, and beautifully understated — the perfect way to introduce colour into a neutral home without overwhelming the space.
How Svenska Blue Works in Real Homes
This soft green‑blue is one of our most popular colours for good reason. It pairs effortlessly with both blues and greens, making it an ideal starting point for building an endless, harmonious palette. Whether your home leans coastal, Scandinavian, modern, or classic, Svenska Blue slips in seamlessly and elevates everything around it.
