AW26 Trend: Jewel Tones

Bring curated luxury and dramatic depth to every room with Jewel Tones. Effortlessly glamorous yet eminently liveable, this trend combines saturated colour, naturally beautiful furniture and polished metallic accents. Join Bana Tabdiliazar, our Home Design Studio Stylist, as she explains how to make this luxurious look work for you.

Living: Make colour an immersive experience

Drench your living room in a colour palette of saturated jewel tones and create a look that feels elevated and glamorous as well as warm, cosy and inviting. Deep ruby red and midnight blue bring depth and drama to any space, while accessorising with metallic finishes, sculptural shapes and subtle geometric accent patterns ensures that your living space stays modern and polished.

Dimensional, tactile textures more than hold their own against a bold, jewel-inspired scheme. Velvet, chenille or even leather upholstery will give a statement sofa even more impact. Don’t be afraid to mix and match modern and traditional sofas and armchairs: an element of eclecticism gives this high-fashion, jewel-toned scheme broad appeal.

Dining: Pair traditional sophistication with modern ease

Functionality feels at home with our jewel-toned palette. Choose a dining table and a set of dining chairs that maximise your space and make entertaining easier. Then elevate a versatile extending dining table and guest-friendly swivel dining chairs by carrying a single jewel-toned colour across the walls, woodwork and window treatments.

Natural wood, in all its iterations, reinforces understated luxury. Mixing and matching wood finishes – from industrial-style rustic oak to pale mid-century beech – emphasises the depth of the surrounding colour. As Bana says, “Pared-back wood surfaces provide the kind of contrast that brings a jewel-toned colour scheme to life.”

Bedroom: Let tone and texture soothe and restore

Retreat to a jewel-toned bedroom that restores and rejuvenates in the most stylish way. Anchor the look with a deeper, darker and more intense jewel colour to create a sleep-friendly, low-light ambience. Against this backdrop, a tall cushioned headboard in bright ochre, gold or citrine will make your bed the focal point of the room and lead the way to more restful sleep.

Sink even further into our Jewel Tones trend with textures that match your bedroom’s deep and rich colour palette. Choose a velvet headboard, plush bedding and throws and natural fibres like wool, cotton and linen for rugs, cushions and other finishing touches. Polished and metallic accents keep the look contemporary and curated.
