The Anatomy of Colour is essential for restorers, decorators, and all those interested in history and design. Patrick Baty traces 300 years of pigments and paints, colour systems and standards, and their impact on interiors from the 1660s to 1960s. Reproductions of interiors highlight colour trends of each period. Detailed analysis examines texture, durability, and colour standards, including the Répertoire de Couleurs des Fleurs, British Colour Standard cards, Walpamur paint swatch cards and Parson's Tint Book of Historical Colours.

At DANSK, we've been committed to reusing all incoming boxes and packaging materials from our suppliers since our inception in 2010.
Please don´t mind to welcome a reused box when you place an order with us. More than 95% of our packaging is repurposed. We would greatly appreciate it if you could join us in reusing it—whether to build a space rocket or a castle, or simply by recycling it.
With every order at DANSK, we donate a sum to innovative companies that capture CO₂ from the atmosphere, store it, and thereby make our shipments carbon-neutral.
