a quick look at a warm and shiny metallics

Precious Metals

After the inspiring haul of gold bronze and silver medals in Rio this Summer I’m ready to keep the warm glow going in my choice of Autumnal interiors. My favourite way to use metallics is to combine them, the mix of shiny along with textured warm metals like brass and bronze, or use gold and copper together to bounce light around a room.

There’s a fabulous array of metallic and lustrous wallpapers to choose from. Here are some of my current favourites…

Aptly named Rio from Arthouse has a traditional Artisan look.

Strand from Cole and Son shows striking brush strokes of shimmering copper and a verdigris emerald green.

Yasmin by Eijffinger – a gold intricate fine detailed design.

Ardita from Arthouse with trailing stylised palm leaves and metallic highlights.

But don’t just take our word for it… the shimmer and shine of metallics is tricky to show in its full glory on computer screens so ask for a sample of wallpaper before you buy to experience the true beauty and subtlety of metallic inks in your own home.
