The Decorative Fair has had a long-standing partnership with Mylands, the esteemed British paint and wood finishes manufacturer, renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship, rich history, and commitment to innovation. This collaboration represents a fusion of tradition and modernity, bringing a new depth of colour and style to the world of antiques and art.
The Power of Colour in Antiques and Art
Colour plays a crucial role in the presentation of antiques and artworks, often acting as the backdrop that enhances the beauty, authenticity, and character of each piece. The right shade can bring out the subtleties in an antique frame, highlight the intricate details of a vintage cabinet, or set the mood in a room filled with art. The choice of colour is not just about aesthetics; it’s about creating an atmosphere that resonates with the history and story behind each item.
Why Mylands Stands Out
Mylands is not just another paint company. As the oldest family-owned paint manufacturer in the UK, Mylands has been perfecting the art of paint making for over 140 years. Their factory is based in Lambeth, London, a step away from The Decorative Fair Battersea.
This heritage of craftsmanship, passed down through generations, ensures that every tin of Mylands paint carries with it a legacy of quality and care.
What sets Mylands apart is their dedication to both tradition and innovation. While they honour their time-tested techniques, Mylands is also a pioneer in the industry, being at the forefront of developing plant-based paints that are environmentally friendly without compromising on quality. This innovative approach has led to the creation of paints that are not only beautiful but also sustainable, offering a depth of colour that is unmatched in the industry.
The Depth of Mylands Colours
One of the hallmarks of Mylands paint is its extraordinary depth of colour. This is achieved through the use of the finest pigments and ingredients, as crushed Carrara Marble and a meticulous manufacturing process that ensures each shade is vibrant, rich, and long-lasting. Whether it’s a classic hue that exudes elegance or a contemporary tone that adds a touch of modernity, Mylands offers a palette that can transform any space.
This depth of colour is particularly significant for antique dealers and art exhibitors at The Decorative Fair. The ability to choose from a range of sophisticated colours allows them to style their stands in a way that complements and elevates their collections. The right paint can create a cohesive look that ties together various pieces, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal of their displays.
Dealer and Exhibitor Experiences
Many dealers and exhibitors at The Decorative Fair have already experienced the transformative power of Mylands paint. They have found that the nuanced shades available allow them to create a backdrop that not only complements their antiques and art but also draws in the viewer, creating a more immersive and engaging experience.
The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with exhibitors praising the versatility and quality of Mylands paints. Whether creating a serene, neutral background to let the art speak for itself or using bold colours to make a statement, Mylands has become an indispensable tool for those looking to showcase their collections in the best possible light.
Bringing the Look Home
Fair visitors can now bring the elegance and sophistication of The Decorative Fair into their own homes with Mylands’ exquisite range of paints. Once a best-kept secret within the trade, Mylands launched its first public collection, Colours of London, in 2012. This marked the beginning of a new era, making their extraordinary shades available to private homeowners. Today, Mylands offers a palette of over 200 stunning shades, allowing you to choose the perfect colour to enhance your living space. Whether you’re looking to recreate a classic period look or introduce a contemporary flair, Mylands’ rich, deep colours provide endless possibilities to transform your home.
A Partnership for the Future
The partnership between The Decorative Fair and Mylands is a natural fit, combining a passion for heritage and quality with a commitment to innovation and sustainability. As we continue to celebrate the beauty of antiques and art, we are excited to work with Mylands to bring even more color, style, and inspiration to our fairs.
