Lacquer Love
I have had a strong affinity for high-gloss lacquer, whether on walls or furniture, for ages now. This look always catches my eye, and I am thrilled each time it is trending in the interiors world.

It is an effective way to turn a small space into a gorgeous jewel box, as seen below:

Also an unexpected and stunning treatment for ceilings, a high-gloss lacquer finish is a fantastic way to showcase the often neglected “fifth wall”.

If you are looking for a cruelty-free paint to use for this application, look no further than Farrow & Ball. As a long-time fan of Farrow & Ball paint for their unique finishes and perfectly edited color palette, the fact that they offer vegan and cruelty-free products is just icing on the cake. They offer a gorgeous, high-gloss finish option called “full gloss”. I have selected a few colors below that I think would look brilliant in this finish.
Note that the last two colors are “archive colours” but are still available. And no, this is not a sponsored post, I just genuinely love this company and their product!
I love using high-gloss finishes in my client projects, and now I am feeling inspired to add a little polish and shine to my own space. The only question is, what to paint first…
