      Gold wall art in long, narrow formats - canvas prints with a warm metallic character that catches the light as it moves across a room. Gold tones add contrast to a minimal scheme and depth to a richer one, without the coolness of silver or the flatness of plain yellow.

      A small, carefully chosen range: gilded abstract compositions, Japanese-inspired forms and refined botanical line work. These pieces are made for hallways, staircases and the wall above a bed or sofa, where a long format has room to be seen.

      Made to order in a range of sizes, as a stretched canvas or in a floating or classic frame in black, white, oak, walnut or gold, and delivered ready to hang.

      Gold wall art - frequently asked questions

      Sizing, hanging height and the questions we are asked most.

      Does gold wall art look tacky?

      It depends entirely on the amount. Gold used as an accent within a composition - a gilded line, a leaf edge, a band of warm metallic against neutral - reads as refined. Gold used as the whole surface reads as ornament. This is a deliberately small collection for exactly that reason: gold works in small quantities.

      What is the difference between gold and yellow wall art?

      Gold is metallic and reflective, so it changes as the light moves across a room and reads warmer and richer than a flat colour. Yellow is a pigment - brighter, flatter and more cheerful. If you want warmth and depth, look at gold; if you want light and lift, look at yellow.

      Where does gold wall art work best?

      Hallways, staircases and the wall above a bed or sofa - places with enough light for the metallic tone to do something as you move past. It adds contrast to a minimal scheme and depth to a richer one. It is least effective in a dim, windowless room, where the reflectivity that makes gold interesting has nothing to work with.

      What colours go with gold wall art?

      Deep tones give gold the most to work against - navy, forest green, charcoal and black. Warm neutrals like cream and clay give a softer, more understated result. Gold against a bright white wall can look stark, so it usually wants either a coloured wall or a warm frame to bridge the two.

      Should a gold artwork have a gold frame?

      Usually not. A gold frame around a gold artwork removes the contrast that makes the metallic tone visible, and the two rarely match exactly. Walnut, black or a stretched canvas with no frame all work better. Reserve the gold frame for a piece where gold is only a small accent within a mostly neutral image.
