Vervain Limewash Paint | Blue & Green Collection
Create a soft, tranquil escape with the delicate “duck egg” tones of Vervain.
Vervain is a gentle, pale greenish-blue limewash that evokes the classic serenity of a duck egg finish. This shade offers a sophisticated alternative to standard blues or greens, providing a muted, historical feel that works beautifully in bedrooms, bathrooms, or any space intended for relaxation.
As a Bauwerk Colour Limewash, Vervain is a mineral-based finish that creates a living surface. It provides a breathable, matte texture with subtle tonal variations, allowing your walls to interact naturally with the light in your home.
The Colour Profile
Vervain sits at the perfect intersection of cool minerals and soft botanical tones.
-
The Tone: A soft, pale greenish-blue (Duck Egg).
-
The Mood: Tranquil, soft, and sophisticated.
-
The Comparison: If you prefer a hue with a more pronounced blue lean, Celadon is an excellent alternative. For those seeking more depth and a stronger presence in the same palette, Water serves as its darker counterpart.
Why Choose Bauwerk Limewash?
Our paints are crafted with a commitment to both environmental health and aesthetic soul. Choosing Vervain means selecting a product that is:
-
Environmentally Friendly: Made from natural lime and sustainable mineral pigments.
-
Breathable: Supports a healthy indoor climate by allowing moisture to move freely through the surface.
-
Naturally Antibacterial: The high pH of natural lime provides a built-in defense against mold and mildew.
-
Unique Finish: Each application results in a handcrafted look with natural movement, ensuring your walls possess a depth that synthetic paints cannot replicate.
Application & Coverage
To bring out the delicate pigments of Vervain, we recommend applying it with a Bauwerk Limewash Brush. Using a loose, multi-directional application technique allows the pigments to layer naturally, highlighting the characteristic mottled finish of traditional limewash.
Tip: Limewash is intended for absorbent surfaces like brick, render, or surfaces prepared with a specialized lime-prep undercoat. We always recommend a patch test to see how the soft greenish-blue tones of Vervain respond to the specific lighting in your room.

The benefits of a paint made exclusively from minerals + natural pigments
BAUWERK Colour Lime Wash Paints are purely mineral based. They are manufactured from calcium carbonate, the same material sea shells are made from. When you paint with it the only chemical reaction that takes place is the absorption of atmospheric CO2 to convert the lime paint back to lime stone.
We colour our Limewash with natural pigments, this makes our colours completely different, as when light hits the wall the colours look like no other.
You can safely paint your home without any fear of breathing in fumes that are harmful to you or your children. We make the paint without solvents or volatile organic compounds (VOC). Because of that, Bauwerk Lime Paint is fire proof.
The paint can be used inside or outside, even in high humidity environments, such as bathrooms. It is not film-forming, like a plastic paint; it allows walls to breathe and be part of your micro-climate inside your home.
We don't use biocides or other preservatives; our lime wash has natural anti-bacterial properties. Enjoy the emotional depth and the play of light on our colours—they react dynamically to changing light conditions.
