Marble is one of our favorite materials used in modern home
design and décor. This isn’t exactly a groundbreaking preference or
opinion—marble has been mined for its inherent beauty for centuries—used for
everything from sculpture to kitchen countertops. It has a way of adding a
touch of lux to any room it’s found in (even in its faux varieties), and as
such we have gone a bit crazy for it at Hillsdale Furniture.
We especially love it mixed and paired with other lovely
materials, and here are a few of our particular favorites:
Marble + Copper
While we love marble in both its black and white hues,
nothing can really compare to a beautiful white marble offset by the sheen in
brass or copper. The two materials become infinitely fancier together than they
ever were apart.

Marble + Oak
Pairing these two beautiful fair hues in a bathroom or
kitchen will bring in the light like you wouldn’t believe. Together they make
spaces feel clean, clear and bright, and have the added bonus of looking quite
sleek and stylish, and seemingly straight out of “Real Simple” magazine.

Marble + Dark Wood
This one is an equal opportunity style for all hues of
marble. Darker hues of wood—either painted or of the cherry variety—bring out
the best in marble. These design blends tend to look bold, classic and sophisticated
in an upscale antique kind of way. Hillsdale’s own Monaco Collection captures
this aesthetic, and is a quick and easy way to introduce the look to your home.
Do you have marble in your home? How do you decorate around
(or more appropriately, with) it?
