Chrome Is Having A Moment & Here’s How To Get The Look

We’re calling it: after years of warm brass, aged bronze and brushed copper dominating interiors, polished chrome is back with a sharper, more contemporary feel. Cool, reflective and quietly glamorous, it’s an easy way to update a room without committing to a complete redesign. Addison Ross is tapping into the trend with its new Chrome Collection, giving four signature designs a metallic update that brings a fresh, modern touch to the home. Here’s everything you need to know…

Created in partnership with Addison Ross

Favourite Pieces Re-Imagined

Addison Ross has embraced the trend with its new Chrome Collection, which gives some of the brand’s most recognisable designs a smart, mirrored finish. The result is a collection that feels contemporary and fashion-led, while retaining the playful personality and decorative appeal Addison Ross is known for.

At the heart of the collection are four familiar Addison Ross pieces: the Chrome Bobbin Salt and Pepper Mill, Mini Chrome Bobbin Salt and Pepper Mill, and two rounded Bobbin Candlesticks, available in two sizes. Their sculptural silhouettes feel instantly recognisable, but the polished finish gives them a more architectural edge. There’s also a Scallop Rechargeable LED Lamp which is sure to deliver on atmosphere next time you’re entertaining.

Trend-Led But Timeless

This is chrome with a softer, more considered feel. Rather than recreating the high-shine interiors of the 1990s, Addison Ross brings the finish into a more layered, contemporary setting. The collection can feel minimalist and architectural, glamorous and 1970s-inspired, or playful and eclectic, depending on how it is styled.

The collection also demonstrates how versatile chrome can be. It works beautifully with rich woods, earthy shades and tactile fabrics, adding contrast to materials such as walnut, travertine, boucle and linen. Try a pair of chrome mills on a warm wooden dining table, or style one of the candlesticks against chocolate brown, olive, burgundy or tobacco tones. Used sparingly, reflective pieces catch the light and give a room a subtle lift.

Whether you start with a single candlestick, add a pair of mills to your table or use chrome as a finishing touch on a coffee table or bar, the collection makes a strong case for letting a little silver shine. We also love the idea of mixing it with some of our existing Addison Ross favourites - here’s our edit of other styles we love…

The Fashion Week Launch

To celebrate its Chrome Collection, Addison Ross took one of London’s iconic black cabs and gave it a high-shine makeover, sending it out onto the streets during fashion week. The chrome-wrapped taxi toured some of the capital’s best-known landmarks, from Chelsea and Harrods to Buckingham Palace and Big Ben, with founders Sarah and David Ross along for the ride. In a playful moment, the team also picked up SheerLuxe’s Laura Black and Georgina Blaskey, to offer them a lift between shows.
