Inspired by a jewellery box of precious stones, baubles and glistening beads, adorning the home in sapphire blue, ruby red and emerald green is testament to how a rich colour palette plays with our emotions. Echoing those luxe vibes of dressing to go ‘out out’, there’s a richness and warmth when you drape an accent chair with a velvet throw in a sumptuous shade; or accessorise a sofa with scatter cushions in lavish hues. Moreover, wallpaper also brings a moody magic to this aesthetic.
“Jewel tones can infuse a space with luxury, depth, and vibrancy”, says Chelsea Clark, head of marketing at I Love Wallpaper. “Whether aiming to create a dramatic focal point or add subtle elegance through intricate patterns, wallpaper is a great way to introduce these rich hues.” Inspired by precious gemstones, Clark says these saturated colours can transform any room, from stunning accent walls to enveloping an entire space in opulence.
To balance the intensity of jewel tones, she says to pair them with neutral furnishings and incorporate metallic accessories, to ensure the space remains harmonious and inviting. From fun and frivolous to designer décor updates, here’s what’s caught our eye..
