Gorgeous, Jewel-Toned Flowers For Fall

That’s right, you heard us: Gorgeous, jewel-toned flowers for fall.

There are two color palettes that pop up during this time of year. Either we have the muted harvest hues that make our homes and work spaces feel comfortable and warm, or we have the rich, exciting colors of the gemstone spectrum. This is a multi-faceted look, offering tons of depth and a little bit of mysterious glam. Casas Adobes Flower Shop maintains that the best way to bring this color scheme into your home is through flowers, and boy do they look amazing when they come in precious stone hues.

Warm Jewel Tones vs. Cool Jewel Tones

When you think of jewel-tone flowers, you may think of the warm, rich red, yellow, and orange blooms like chrysanthemums, dahlias, and other iconic autumn stems. Or, perhaps you like the deep, moody, cool hues like blue, green, and purple florals, including calla lilies, orchids, button mums, and delphinium that remind us of the cool sweater weather that is just around the corner. However, both warm jewel tones and cool jewel tones are necessary for creating the perfect warm, cozy, rich, and profound fall arrangement or even Thanksgiving centerpiece. Whether you enjoy utilizing complementary jewel tones or mixing and matching between warm and cool hues, it is important to note the basics based on traditional color theory and the color wheel.

Complementary Jewel-Toned Floral Hues

Gold & Amethyst Flowers

The jewel tones of yellow and purple are nothing short of regal and royal. As you perk up your autumn decor with this dignified duo, look toward blooms like uplifting sunflowers, Craspedia billy balls, daisies, football chrysanthemums, carnations, purple calla lilies, orchids, larkspur, purple pompon, and dianthus. This unstoppable jewel-toned pairing will offer the best of autumn in the most sophisticated and graceful way.

Amber & Sapphire Flowers

A warm amber-orange hue paired with a cool sapphire blue is a classic combination of complementary colors. Imagine the deep richness of petals that offer multi-toned oranges like alstroemeria, lilies, button mums, and dahlias nestled among brilliant blues like blue thistle, hydrangea, delphinium, and iris. This color combination is nothing short of cozy and radiant, like the glow of a fireplace with tiny blue flames that crackle above the coals.

Ruby & Emerald Flowers

Our final jewel-toned couple is ruby red and emerald green. Of course, your mind might take you straight to the hustle and bustle of the holiday season with this festive color combo. However, when we look at rich red roses, like carnations, dianthus, dahlias, chrysanthemums, and gerbera daisies, nestled among a bed of green eucalyptus or accompanied by green button mums, succulents, green orchids, or even Granny Smith apples, it is undeniably autumn.

It’s My Party Bouquet is really a testament to this concept. See how the deep violet and ruby red explode alongside a sweet pink, commanding our attention and setting the tone. All you need when you’re working on a jewel-toned look is one or two pieces introduced to the space that hew to this aesthetic. They’ll do a lot of work for you, putting you in the mood for a moody fall with all of its richness. This piece can go anywhere; let it anchor a dining room table or perch on the countertop in the kitchen. Wherever you place your jewel-toned design, it will have an impact.
