Leather home hardware is one of those finishing touches that can completely transform a room — but with so many beautiful colours to choose from, how do you pick the right one? Whether you're looking for curtain tie backs or drawer pulls, this guide will help you match the perfect leather colour to your interior style.
Antique Brown — The Classic Choice
Antique Brown is our most timeless colour and works beautifully in traditional, rustic, and country-style interiors. Think warm wood tones, linen fabrics, and earthy palettes. It pairs especially well with cream or oatmeal curtains, adding a rich, aged quality that feels both refined and lived-in.
Best for: Farmhouse, traditional, and heritage interiors.
Pairs with: Warm neutrals, dark wood furniture, brass fixtures.

Olive Green — Earthy and On-Trend
Olive Green has become one of our most popular colours, and it's easy to see why. It sits beautifully in nature-inspired interiors and adds a sophisticated, muted depth that works across both modern and traditional spaces. If you're decorating with botanical prints, rattan, or natural textures, Olive Green leather hardware is a natural companion.
Best for: Biophilic, Scandi, and contemporary country interiors.
Pairs with: Terracotta, warm whites, natural linen, and dark green accents.

Pink — Bold, Playful, and Surprisingly Versatile
Don't underestimate pink. From soft blush to a more confident Barbie-inspired hue, our pink leather hardware adds a playful personality to any space. It works brilliantly in maximalist interiors, children's rooms, or as a deliberate pop of colour in an otherwise neutral scheme.
Best for: Maximalist, eclectic, and contemporary interiors.
Pairs with: Dusty rose, deep navy, warm greys, and gold fixtures.
Yellow — Sunshine in Hardware Form
Yellow leather is a bold choice that rewards confidence. It brings warmth and energy to a room and works particularly well in kitchens, utility rooms, or any space where you want to inject some joy. Pair it with white cabinetry for a fresh, modern look or with dark wood for a more dramatic contrast.
Best for: Kitchens, utility rooms, and playful contemporary spaces.
Pairs with: White, charcoal, navy, and natural wood tones.

Grey — Cool, Calm, and Contemporary
Grey leather hardware is the understated choice for modern and minimalist interiors. It adds texture without demanding attention, making it ideal for spaces where you want the hardware to complement rather than compete. It's particularly effective in Scandi-inspired rooms with clean lines and a restrained palette.
Best for: Minimalist, Scandi, and modern interiors.
Pairs with: White, off-white, pale wood, and cool-toned accents.
Blue — Calm, Coastal, and Classic
Blue leather brings a sense of calm and depth to a room. Whether you're going for a coastal look or a more classic navy-inspired scheme, blue leather hardware adds a considered, intentional touch. It works beautifully in bathrooms, bedrooms, and living rooms where you want to create a relaxed, serene atmosphere.
Best for: Coastal, classic, and relaxed interiors.
Pairs with: White, sand, warm wood, and rattan.
How to Choose: A Simple Framework
Still not sure? Here's a simple way to decide:
- Match your metal fixtures first. Brass fixtures pair beautifully with warm leather tones (Antique Brown, Olive Green, Yellow). Nickel and chrome suit cooler tones (Grey, Blue).
- Consider your dominant colour. Your leather hardware should either complement or deliberately contrast your wall and fabric colours — avoid colours that are too similar, as they'll disappear.
- Think about longevity. Neutral tones like Antique Brown and Grey are the safest long-term choices. Bold colours like Pink and Yellow are more trend-led but can be refreshed easily as hardware is a small investment.
