HOT TOPIC: Bullion for you!

Q I’m looking to wow our guests with venue styling that’s both modern and quirky – what can you suggest? 

Hanging hoops of bullion are a hot styling newbie that we expect to see much more of over the coming months. These fanciful ornamental braids or fringing are made with twists of gold, silver or white threads. In fact, they’ve been used similarly in design and décor for decades but appear to be making a stylist comeback. 

Bullion cords have a remarkable ability to create an immediate impact, with their grand presence introducing an entirely different ambience and air of elegance to any setting. Additionally, they are tremendously versatile, blending beautifully into any theme, whether it be modern, minimalist, edgy, bohemian, vintage, quirky or classical.

Big in impact, small on budget. What’s not to love? This is one design element to deserve a seat at the style round table for a long time to come.
