Pearlescent pink picks from the Anthropologie President's Day sale
Livingetc knows design.
$30.40
A delicate design, this handcrafted selection of glassware has a subtle rose gold tint that beautifully bounces light around. The golden rim is a tasteful touch for the ultimate in dining decor.
$30.40
Proudly designed and poured in the USA, this cute candle jar works with the flickering light of the candle to create a warm metallic glow. Use as mantel decor for immediate transformation.
$12.80
I've had a couple of these coasters for a while, and they're always a crowd-pleaser, pulled out at any dinner party for when my tablescape needs a bit of love. I love the rough gilded edges.
$298.00
OK, it's not strictly pearlescent pink, but this combo of gold and pink has that same glamorous effect. With a hint of vintage charm, it's a pretty purchase (and a limited-time exclusive).
$298.50
The capiz light fixture is a great example of pearlescent decor in action, with that shell-like sheen bouncing from the light source. They're a touch on the Art Deco side too, which I love.
$223.50
And if you're going for the ceiling light, why not get this seriously cute lamp to match? Handcrafted from capiz shells to give off a pearl-like glow, it's a nice addition to decorate a bookshelf with.
$51.20
I love these handcrafted bowls and their vintage charm, with that colored glass a winner at any dinner party. Pick from a variety of colors, although the shimmering pink is my favorite.
$10.50
Handmade from natural stone, no two of these handles are the same, some turning out lighter than others. But their irregularity is exactly what I like, that and the touch of brass.
$238.40
Another statement lampshade, this one is a twist on the banker's lamp, with an elegant light pink glass shade that would look beautiful on your bedside table. With $60 off, it's a steal too!
Why pearlescent pink? And how to style it
Pale pink has long been in vogue. We've seen it take on a new lease of life as a neutral, bringing warmth to minimalist schemes. We've seen it paired with vibrant green for that classic Millenial color combo, or layered in a monochromatic way (see Nina Magon's rosy-hued bedroom of dreams, below).
Moving on from the pale, baby pink form, designers haven't shied away from bold pink too, with Viva Magenta selected as Pantone's Color of the Year last year, while Benjamin Moore gave Raspberry Blush the crown of its big color trend for 2023.
But rising to the fore is the more sophisticated shimmer of pearlescent pink, something that takes the flat, matte pink to another dimension, with a metallic warmth that brings a touch of glamor.
Just like how recent fashion weeks have seen oversized pearls as the stars of the show, we are using pearly pink as jewelry in our homes' interiors. Designers are finding clever ways to bring that opalescent shimmer, with the likes of Lisa Staton using the glass-like quality of zellige tiles as a mirror to bounce pink around a room.
Meanwhile, Billy Cotton's love-it-or-hate-it design for Lily Allen and David Harbour gave the couple's dark bedroom some much-needed light with pearly pink bedsheets.
