The trend for the combination of green and gold has been formed for a long time, but I saw confirmation of it in April at the American exhibition High Point Market. A variety of brands presented several collections of items with luxurious green velvet textures and gold details. Royal green can be safely called the trend of today, and, of course, it goes well with gold.
After all, this is a classic as it is. Remember the palace chambers - there are a lot of similar combinations. In today's realities, green and gold look most advantageous in Art Deco interiors, which I love very much. It is especially pleasing that the factory Eichholtz released a collection largely in line with this trend.
In this, the factory has not changed itself. For this I love Eichholtz- the trend is still being formed, and many brands are just beginning to look in its direction, and the Dutch are already drawing with might and main and planning to release items that will definitely become popular.
Another factor is the optimal combination of price and quality. Eichholtz I prefer to take from trusted dealers, salon ID Collection headed by Dmitry Tilevich has repeatedly confirmed its title No. 1 in Europe. I am mainly involved in community projects, which I often decorate with items from Eichholtz, and here compliance with the picking deadlines is almost the main factor, and ID Collection always on schedule.

3 rules for using gold color in the interior
There are only a few rules for using gold in a residential interior:
1. Sense of proportion
The golden color is a representative of warm colors, so its presence in the interior creates additional visual space and illumination.

Luxurious beds with golden headboards and legs, chairs with a splash of gold on the upholstery, dressers and cabinets with golden handles will become unobtrusive symbols of wealth and aristocracy.
But if gold in the interior is present on large items, such as furniture, this does not always look appropriate. If the owners like furniture with gilding, then in this case it is better to give preference not to bright shades, but to a little muted, reminiscent of an aged color.
