8 statement pieces for every home

You can only go so far with decorating. Yes, you can put up feature wallpaper or use statement paint colours, but it’s what you put in your rooms that really makes them sing. Here I share my top 8 statement pieces with major wow factor.

Written by:

I'm here to show you, you don’t have to be into flashy things to appreciate statement design. Whether you’re somebody who loves to be surrounded by lots of key pieces or prefer to use them here and there, you can turn the impact dial up or down according to your taste.


Searching for statement pieces can be time-consuming, so I'm pleased to let you know I've gone ahead and done the hard work for you.


Check out my round-up of fabulous items; there’s something for everyone (and plenty more options too, this is just the starting point):


Statement piece 1: Ezra Silver Table Lamp with Cream Shade


I can’t help but let out a gasp of appreciation every time I see this gorgeous table lamp.


Exuding luxe vibes aplenty, the base is a work of art in itself.


Featuring 3D-moulded glass in an opulent silver finish, the base is both eye-catching and elegant.


Meanwhile, the cream drum lightshade draws even more (deserved) attention to the base and balances the entire design out superbly.


Bedrooms or living rooms, this lamp was made for glam interior design schemes.

Statement piece 2: Bloom Round Patterned Footstool


There are footstools and then there are statement footstools, like this eye-catching piece in all its floral beauty.


I'm not going to say too much about it because the images do the talking, from the abundance of flowers to the fabulous colours and delicate piped edging, which is available in different colours.


This footstool looks great sat next to any of the sofas within the super stylish Bloom Sofa Range.
