Pottery Blue: Opening the Door to a New Range of Solidor colours


It is one of the most iconic colours in the history of British Pottery, now Wedgwood Blue has been used as the inspiration for a new door colour launched this week.

Pottery Blue, the newest addition to the Solidor colour range, is based on the famous grey-blue colour of Wedgwood. This iconic pottery which was first established in Burslem - one of six towns in Staffordshire that now forms Stoke-on-Trent - in 1759. Also known as The Potteries, Stoke-on-Trent is also the home of the Solidor factory.

The distinctive Wedgwood blue is also the inspiration behind the signature colour of the Bridgerton family in Netflix hit Bridgerton, hues akin to this soft blue can be paired with neutral tones to create a subtle yet opulent entrance to any home.


One of three new colours launched by Solidor, Pottery Blue can be used to create a statement without being overpowering. Pebble Grey and Granite Grey were also introduced to the range to provide homeowners with a full spectrum of greys to choose from.

Pebble Grey is one of the latest in-demand shades. Often described as a mid-taupe, this diverse colour not only lends itself to a host of exterior finishes, but its timeless nature makes it an ideal colour for blending seamlessly with many interior designs too.

Granite Grey provides an eye-catching but not overwhelming focal point for hallways. A softer alternative to Anthracite Grey, it offers the versatile benefits of a neutral grey pallet and can be used to complement a range of textures, colours and decors.


Mark Young, group commercial director at Solidor, said:

“We’ve added Pottery Blue to the range as a nod to the 300-year history of Stoke-on-Trent, the hometown of Solidor. Blue is a colour that never goes out of style, with many interior design brands opting for various shades of blue as their colour of the year once again, so we envisage this becoming one of our most popular colours. 
“The two new greys ensure that homeowners can find the perfect shade for their home in line with the latest trends. Pebble Grey in particular has been a colour that homeowners have been requesting, so we’re pleased to be able to help them achieve a coordinated finish for their property.”

This latest range update brings Solidor’s total number of colours to 27, all of which are available for homeowners to experiment with on the Solidor Door Designer.
