Discover Feather & Black’s stunning selection of wood furniture, including our signature Sienna collection, the deeply elegant Emporium range and the showstopping Jacob design, to bring the inviting influence of warm wood tones into your own home.

Mixing wood tones in your bedroom

As you begin your journey to discover how to mix and match wood furniture in your bedroom, you must first identify the dominant wood element that will set the tone for the rest of the room. In essence, this is the most prominent wooden feature, whether it’s a charming exposed wooden floor, elegant bespoke cabinetry or a stunning statement bed.   

When mixing wood tones, let this foundational piece be the heart of your décor; its undertones guiding you to select complementary furniture, accessories and colours that create a seamless tapestry throughout the space. If your dominant tone is warm, choosing woods with the same undertone promises a harmonious and balanced look.

Warm woods, such as walnut, mahogany, light oak and maple, blend beautifully with their red, orange or yellow undertones, reminiscent of sunlight. Carefully consider the rest of your décor, including the colour palette, to ensure it is in keeping with the different colours of wood, leaning into warmer neutrals like terracotta, ochre, oatmeal and greige.

Embrace a combination of dark and light wood with the same warm undertone to curate a symphony of depth and contrast in your interior design. Envisage the exquisite richness of a dark wood bed, such as our stunning slatted Jacob design, paired with the refined elegance of light weathered oak, the tones intertwining into a warm, cosy and inviting ambience.  

Creating a cohesive look with warm wood furniture 

When mixing warm wood tones in your bedroom, pay careful attention not only to the different colours of wood but also the enchanting grain patterns and their tactile finishes. Each piece of natural wood, with its unique characteristics, reveals mesmerising patterns, from straight lines to spirals and interwoven designs, that beckon to be admired.

Expertly crafted warm wood furniture also showcases a stunning array of textures and finishes, from smooth, sleek and glossy to weathered, distressed and rugged. The bold and eclectic charm of contrasting grain patterns and textures in warm wood tones infuses timeless character and sophisticated beauty into your bedroom décor.  

Discover how to mix and match wood furniture by taking inspiration from our exquisite furniture collections. Picture our stunning Vintage Rattan Bed, with its classic dark wood and textured natural rattan, beautifully juxtaposed against the smooth, rounded corners and distinctive grain of our enchanting, weathered oak Aubrey 2-Drawer Bedside Tables.  

For a truly cohesive aesthetic, blend warm wood pieces that share the same characteristics. The beautiful grain patterns and classic weathered oak finish in our French-inspired Sienna and Emporium collections perfectly complement one another, both showcasing timeless femininity and romance in their gently sweeping curves and deeply elegant silhouettes.

  1. Enhancing your bedroom with wooden accessories 

    With your mix-and-match wood furniture in place, you can turn your attention to adding beautiful finishing touches that complement the warm wood tones. Continue the harmonious ambience already created by introducing smaller wooden accessories, each echoing the same warm undertones as your cherished furniture pieces.  

    Picture a romantic, pale weathered oak mirror sitting beautifully atop a stunning dark wood chest or an antique wooden photo frame hung above a romantic weathered oak bed. Place an intricate rattan chair in stunning contrast next to a statement dark wood bed or style warm weathered oak bedside tables with a charming wooden trinket tray.  

    Balance your décor by weaving in natural materials and textures that enhance the warm wood tones of your furniture. A cosy wool throw, soft sheepskin rug or rustic stone vase can all add to the laidback luxury and effortless elegance of the aesthetic. Finally, illuminate your cosy bedroom with the gentle glow of soft, warm lighting.

Practical tips for maintaining wood furniture 

Treat your warm wood furniture with the upmost care and attention to preserve its innate beauty and pristine appearance. While the natural imperfections and patina of wood help to conceal minor scratches and blemishes, it is important to note how to clean and maintain your investment to ensure longevity.

Regular dusting can be carried out with a soft cloth or feather duster to remove dirt and debris. Spills and stains can be gently wiped with soft, damp cloth immediately followed by a dry cloth to remove any residual water marks. Avoid using abrasives or cleaning products that contain ammonia or solvents as these may cause damage to the surface of the wood.  

If possible, place your wooden furniture away from direct sunlight or heat sources, such as radiators and fireplaces. Excessively high temperatures may cause the wood to dry out, split or warp. Protect the surface of your warm wood furniture by using coasters or mats underneath mugs, glasses, vases and pot plants.  

Finally, take care when handling or moving your wooden furniture, making sure to lift rather than drag to avoid any damage. Adhere to this simple wood furniture care guide and invest in high quality, expertly-crafted pieces to ensure you can appreciate the wonder of your warm wood furniture pieces for many years to come.
