Home decoration is about more than colour and pattern; the materials you choose also help to define the overall aesthetic of your interior. In this guide, we’ll drill down into the best materials for luxury interiors, including marble, ceramics and glass. Read on to discover what goes into our décor accessories and why they are so special.
Marble
When it comes to premium material types for accessories, marble has to be near the top of the list. Interior designers love this beautiful stone, which has a unique look thanks to its distinctive veining patterns and can be polished to a high shine. Strong and durable, marble is a natural and long-lasting material, making it a sustainable choice for your interior.
At Knot Home, you’ll find marble in a wide range of accessories, including decorative marble trays in white, grey or black with gold accents. It also makes the perfect base for our candle holders and sculptures.
Ceramic
Ceramics are hard materials that are made by heating softer materials (such as clay) in a kiln at very high temperatures. Porcelain is just one example. Made using kaolin clay, it’s denser and more durable than other types of ceramic – as seen in our porcelain stools, it’s even strong enough to sit on.
Our ceramic accessories showcase a number of different finishes. At one end of the spectrum you’ll find textured ceramic vases with an organic, earthy feel. At the other, you’ll see shiny ceramic canister jars with a smooth, glossy texture.
Glass
No materials guide would be complete without glass: an elegant, versatile material that lets the light shine through, creating a feeling of openness in your living space. Our glass accessories come in a range of colours and finishes. Frosted glass has a chic, opaque look, while textured glass lends an artisan feel to an irregular glass vase.
The collection at Knot Home includes modern, streamlined vases made from clear glass, as well as vibrant oil diffusers for a pop of colour. Look out too for our mouth-blown glass vase – this distinctive piece will pair perfectly with a bohemian carpet.
