In the 18th century, yellow became the color of the new mansions and it also became common on the plastered buildings of the cities. Of course, in the 19th century, the common wooden houses followed suit. When the color red became too common to confer status, wealthier city dwellers chose to clad their houses in wood paneling and linseed oil paint them yellow with grey details. At first, only the street facade might be painted, but eventually the whole house was painted yellow, while the outbuildings often retained their fake red color.

Traditionally, yellow houses were painted in a milder yellow color than what we often see today. With tradition in mind, we have therefore developed a manor yellow color that gives your facade a beautiful, warm and soft feeling.

Classic golden yellow color that has been used unbroken for almost 300 years as a door and window color outdoors. It has the same warmth as oak. It has also been used to create the illusion of oak. It is also commonly mixed with white to give a manor yellow color (30 – 10% yellow ochre).

Our Gulockra linseed oil paint was replaced in 2017 with Gulockra natural linseed oil paint, which is made entirely from the finest earth color pigment imaginable, golden ochre from France. A linseed oil paint pigmented with genuine earth color pigments gives an extra dimension to the painted surface.

The pigment is made from clay soils that have been washed and bleached by nature itself over thousands of years and is produced in the same way today as it was hundreds of years ago. Natural clay pigments such as golden ochre and red ochre are both muted and vibrant, giving natural color tones.
