Established in 1989, Rose of Jericho combines scientific analysis, traditional craftsmanship and historically authentic ingredients to manufacture and supply materials for the conservation, repair and redecoration of historic and traditional buildings.

We manufacture and supply a range of traditional limewash and distemper paints, slake limes, mature lime putty, prepare ready-mixed lime mortars and plasters and produce graded stonedusts, pozzolans and specialist ingredients. We are fully familiar with the range of issues surrounding the appropriate treatment of older buildings and can advise on, and provide, materials tailored to the needs of individual projects. We undertake materials analysis and historic building consultancy and hold a library of British aggregates and mortars enabling us to advise on and supply solutions tailored to each project. All our materials are suitable for use in traditional and historic buildings and most are environmentally friendly.

We are skilled colourmen using artist-quality powder pigments to match historic colours. Our clients include The Royal Household, Historic Royal Palaces, Historic England, the Landmark Trust, various heritage trusts and many cathedrals, but the majority of our customers live in, and love, their cottages, townhouses, farmhouses and manor houses throughout the UK.
