Copper, silver and tarnished gold add to the luxe appeal of the new autumn/winter collection of bedlinens and accessories―think glamour and indulgent elegance depicted in woven metallic threads, vintage patterns and intricate detailing.
Ultima’s Paloma Gold epitomises the look. The quilt cover, in an optic white and black sateen, features a stunning panel of tiny gold and white sequins artfully arranged in a lavish design. Square cushions and European pillowcases repeat this deluxe detailing.
Platinum’s Tri Copper is a sleek contemporary take on a geometric repeat of triangles and diamonds in a luscious metallic mix of copper, silver and black. The textured look of the lighter-coloured triangles softens the design while black cord piping provides a bold outline to each piece.
Florence Broadhurst’s legendary pattern―Chinese Key―has been reworked and upscaled in a burnished gold, woven with crinkle effect, and set against a subtle linen background in soft chenille. Turn-back contrast is added with Chinese Key in a classic scale in linen. Team with deepest moody blues (such as the Florence Broadhurst Circles and Squares and/or Fingers cushions and faux cashmere throw rug) for luxury and style.
And for the thrill-seeker in us all, Davinci’s Octavia Gold gives a nod to the grandeur of Byzantine architecture with its bold, decorative octagonal pattern in black, white and gold. Raised and flat weaves provide tactile diversity while the clever interplay of patterns creates visual richness. Edges are trimmed with rope cord and thick fringing in rich gold.
Octavia Gold accessories include European pillowcase plus square and long cushions―all of which team perfectly with the sumptuous Symphony black velvet round cushions.
Other cushions that work well with the luxe metallic look are Davinci’s Minnelli Gold―a square cushion radiating glamour with its elaborate display of two-tone sequins in black and gold―and Logan & Mason’s Nova Sterling―a long cushion featuring diagonal waves of sparkling sequins on a ground of matte satin silver.
Retail prices range from $44.95 to $319.95.
