Capability Green

Capability Green
Capability Green is a warm, natural green inspired by the beauty of the English landscape. Use it to bring the soothing qualities of the outdoors, indoors.

The name is a nod to the lush gardens of the 18th Century English landscape gardener Lancelot “Capability” Brown, who remains to this day the most celebrated English gardener. His greatest works merged the rolling landscape of untamed country parks with flower gardens and ha-ha walls.

A colour that is gentle and soothing to the eye, Capability Green works well with most other colours in the palette, but particularly well as a neutral base alongside blues, pinks and yellows.

Capability Green has been especially developed alongside Annie Sloan’s friends at the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) to celebrate the great English outdoors.

About Chalk Paint®
Annie Sloan first developed the Chalk Paint® range in 1990 to answer the need for a versatile, easy to use paint that would work beautifully on furniture without priming or sanding. That would be quick to dry; and that could be used for a number of different paint techniques. It is called Chalk Paint® because of its velvety, ultra matt finish.
Annie Sloan is all about sharing her passion for decorative painting, and inspiring people to be creative and adventurous with her paints and colours.
