As the clocks go back and longer nights draw in, the urge to hunker down at home is undeniable. So make your home rich and warm for winter with the introduction of one of Autumn Winter 2019’s biggest trends: jewel tones. What are jewel tones? They’re colours resembling the hues of gemstones, like ruby, sapphire and emerald – rich and warm shades that give a luxe look. They add depth and luxury to your space, and make it instantly more welcoming and evocative. Here’s how to bring jewel tones into every room of your home.
Jewel toned living room
Your living room should be the most cosy room of your house, so add jewel tones – ruby and emerald – to your living room through the use of textured home accessories, like rugs and throw cushions.

Jewel toned bedroom
