Did you know that the colour teal is named after the common teal, a member of the duck family, whose eyes are surrounded by the colour?

Teal is also one of those ‘new-fangled’ colours that you’re never quite sure if you know what is! (A bit like duck egg – what is it with all these ducks?) If you’re not sure, teal is a medium blue-green colour. Easy!

Teal is loved by many so we are very proud of our new Dusty Teal roman blind which is spot on with its blue-green hue.

Teal works very well either as an accent colour or as the main colour and just to prove it here are some fabulous room shots plus paint and wallpaper that really work that teal tingle. (Just click here to order that teal sample or blind!)
