Easter Egg (1111971) - Dulux Paints Colour Shade Card

Your Guide to Easter Egg (1111971)

Easter Egg (1111971) is a breezy violet shade by Dulux - a light, easy shade that suits full walls across the home. The cool undertone means it settles best next to cool whites and greys.

Rooms That Suit Easter Egg

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Bedrooms and quiet corners: violet suits restful, slightly indulgent spaces.
• Kitchens and dining areas: a fresh, clean tone suits spaces where you cook and eat.
• Narrow hallways and box rooms: light colours push the walls out and add a sense of space.

Building a Palette With Easter Egg

For a whole-home look, use Easter Egg as a base to build the rest of the palette on and bring in:

• Soft grey and white - to keep it calm and elegant.
• Silver or chrome - for a cool, refined accent.
• Blush or mauve - for a gentle, tonal pairing.

A shared accent between two rooms is an easy way to make the whole home feel considered.

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Easter Egg keeps its crisp, cool look in daylight and turns a little softer under warm bulbs.

Best finish: A matt finish looks smooth and modern in living rooms and bedrooms; use a washable soft-sheen in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Before You Start

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - violet can look different at noon and by lamplight. A second thin coat evens it out, and a leftover tin handles later marks.
