When you are looking for a touch of serenity in your home, colour can do wonders and we love the current trend for duck egg interiors and accessories. We have already featured our all time favourite desk in a vibrant shade of duck egg right here.
Because so many people have commented on this desk I thought I would source some more lovely pieces – but be warned, you can’t overdo this colour (it becomes a wash out quite fast!) so try and select one beautiful accent piece…or you could opt for a classic decor scheme and have it on your walls, which looks perfect which looks fantastic with a natural wooden floor :

I particularly like the contrast with the warm pink in this room example – feminine without being overtly girly.
Right, now onto the good stuff:
The subtlest example for duck egg decor I have seen is this super cool text-map of London by Bold and Noble which you can own for £43 – I think this would make an amazing gift for a Londoner

I adore the curves of this duck-egg jug by Farnham based ceramicist Lucy Burley. I think its subtle lines are sexy enough to sit on a mantle-piece as a focal piece and is a snip at just £40.

It is worth checking out Lucy’s other pieces as well – she clearly has an eye for colour and her collection layers together beautifully.
There is also a great selection of duck egg painted furniture to be found on the web and I rather like this console table which combines the colour with a natural unfinished top for a subtle splash of the colour. Available for £329 from here
