Crystal

Encrusting something with crystals is a sure-fire way to inject some opulence into your interiors. And while a smattering of sparkle might not exactly scream subtlety (Donald Trump's New York City penthouse has a diamond-covered front door), you can bring a tasteful bit of bling into your abode with a statement chandelier, such as this one from Lasvit.

Leather

Tactile and inviting, leather evokes old-school quality and style. For a modern twist on the classic material, try embossed leather wall tiles in geometric arrangements to add layers of texture and tactility to any room.

Silk

Smooth and sensual, the softness of silk cannot be beaten. Held in high regard since the Tang Dynasty, silk is incredibly versatile and looks and feels gorgeous on sofa cushions or bedspreads. For a more inspired use, experiment with hand-painted silk wallpaper for gorgeous feature walls.
