JH Wall Paints color guide
Brown Lime Wash Paint
Brown lime wash paint wraps a room in rich, earthy warmth with the natural texture only real lime provides. Made from natural slaked lime and earth mineral pigments, JH brown limewash ranges from soft taupe browns to deeper, cocoa toned shades, all with the soft tonal movement that gives limewash its depth. As the lime cures it blooms across the surface, so brown walls feel layered and organic rather than flat. Brown creates a grounded, cozy atmosphere and pairs beautifully with wood, leather, and natural textures. As a breathable mineral finish it performs on plaster, brick, stone, and masonry, and on drywall when used with our Mineral Prime. It is zero VOC, non toxic, and naturally resists mold.
