Setting the mood

Coffee brown, ruby red, deep aubergine, inky black and steel gray formulate a deliciously dark palette for decorative pillows to sink into this season. While the color scheme sways on the side of rich and moody, patterns and texture beckon with dazzling details such as graphic patterning, bead embellishment, metallic foiling and fluttery layering.

Silver foil and herringbone linen embellish a deep aubergine Belgian linen background on the Harvest Moon Collection pillow from Ankasa ($385).
The Alexa Foulard pillow spotlights petite clusters of bead work against an inky black backdrop from Dransfield & Ross ($236).


Made of water hyacinth and nylon, the Fringe Ribbon pillow features a bed of chocolate brown textural delight from Siwthaisilk ($195).
Metal stud ornamentation lends an edgy feel to Cloud 9 Design's poly/silk pillow with rice stitch embroidery ($60).


Steel gray and creamy mocha blend into a sumptuous color combination on the pillows from Ann Gish.
Layers of ruby red poly/silk fabric form an abstract flower pattern on the Burgundy pillow from DB Sources ($225).


An entrancing geometric pattern spans across the Mesmerized Black pillow from Ryan Studio ($160).
Configurations of dulled metallic beading create astral designs against a charcoal linen background on Sotto le Lune's sultry pillow offering ($208).


Artistic renditions of chandelier designs generate a stylish pattern on Bliss Studio's moody Chandelier pillow.
