Gilded Grandeur: The Allure of Gold

Gold has long been synonymous with luxury, evoking a sense of prestige and refinement, harking back to the baroque and rococo styles of French royalty.

Styling Tips: Striking the Perfect Balance

When incorporating gold bedside tables into your bedroom décor, striking the perfect balance is key to achieving a harmonious aesthetic. If your new gold bedside cabinet is your first investment in the world of gold furniture and you’re wondering how to style it, we recommend balancing the gold colour with a bold colour such as dark green or navy blue. To balance the shine on the bedside table, we’d recommend a dramatic matt background. Look to Little Green who offer a fabulous paint, called Hicks Blue, or to Farrow & Ball’s Dead Flat Caulk Green or Beverley Green.

If dark walls aren’t your thing, or if the natural light in your room won’t allow such a dark colour, then ivory white is the perfect pairing with gold – a classic look which can be added to with fresh meadow flowers, wall art, vases, and books.

Pairing gold with complementary materials can enhance its allure while maintaining a sense of balance and cohesion. Consider juxtaposing the richness of gold with natural elements such as marble or wood to create visual interest and depth. A marble tabletop, like the Palais de Versailles Gold Console Table – available in either a small or large size – can soften the metallic gleam of gold, adding warmth and texture to your bedroom. Further expand the magnificence in your room with the unique and Portrait of Chimpspeare Printed Canvas. Additionally, accessorizing with plush textiles and decorative accents in complementary hues can further elevate the luxurious ambiance, infusing your space with an air of refined indulgence.

Gold is a colour that can be dressed up or dressed down, and half the fun of it is that you can be as flamboyant as you like with it – we urge you to play around with it and enjoy the way gold looks and feels in your bedroom sanctuary!

Maintenance Advice: Preserving Radiant Lustre

To ensure that your gold bedside table maintains its radiant lustre and pristine appearance, proper care and maintenance are essential. Carefully dusting the surface once a week with a soft, clean and dry lint-free cloth will help prevent the buildup of dirt and grime, preserving its shimmering sheen. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the delicate finish of the gold.

Instead, to remove any sticky marks, opt for a mild chemical-free soap in warm water to gently clean any spills or stains, followed by thorough and gentle drying with a kitchen towel to prevent water damage. To add to the shine of the golden colour.

With a little tender loving care, your gold bedside table will continue to exude timeless elegance and sophistication for years to come.
