NEW Tor Light in Ochre, Grey and Garnet Tones

The Tor Light

We really love this new Tor light, named after Mam Tor - a hill not far from our  Derbyshire workshop. It means 'Mother Hill' and the chosen colour palette reflects the beautiful landscape of this High Peak ridge. The combination of our Slate Grey, soft Garnet Red and Yellow Ochre balance perfectly and work so well with one of this years' stand out colour ways - dusky blush.
