Brown Betty

from £30.00

Inspired by the teapot on Nana’s table: her baking and hot, sweet cups of tea. A very good, glazed and enfolding brown.

A richer and redder brown than Bird’s Nest or Bitter Chocolate.

Brown Betty works beautifully as a map with some or all of these colours: Warm White, Lunching Ladies, Parviflora, Jam, Totara, Bread & Butter, Waving & Smiling & Winifred Green.
