I've bought these curtains and have teak 1970s furniture and a putty beige coloured leather sofa. The curtains are slightly more grey in real life. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

As you can see the carpets we were looking at don't go well at all...

Hi Jo, we’d suggest you consider an easy-to-clean grey carpet? The beauty of grey is that they are easy on the eye, don’t steal the scene and make a great base for room – on floors, walls, curtains or fabrics – plus they suit both period and contemporary schemes. Our family friendly portfolio of carpets now includes 13 fashionable ranges which are all dirt and stain resistant and bleach cleanable – plus with the added assurance of a 10 year guarantee against stain and wear. Designed to offer practicality without compromising on style – perfect for homes where parties, pets and the patter of tiny feet put carpets under constant threat from spills, stains and sticky fingers!

Thank you for taking the time to comment. I do appreciate it. We have lots of wood elsewhere in the house and whilst decoratively it would be a good choice I was looking for a warmer softer 'feel' than wood. I agree the samples are not very neutral but all the neutral carpets we've tried just fade to a dirty beige in the room, I think grey would deaden the look.

Also depends on the sofa (and other seating) fabric she'll have. And I hope we are talking about floor to ceiling curtains? I've put in a more neutral chair and painted the walls a cream (but obv I don't know whether it resembles the cream walls of your friend's room) Here's a mock up with gold curtains https://www.curtains-2go.co.uk/curtains/23618/lucerna-gilt.htm I don't know this company, so don't know whether it's a nice fabric, but it's the one I used in the 'room'. (I personally wouldn't go for gold curtains though) Another idea could be a dusky pink. https://www.curtains-2go.co.uk/curtains/23327/fine-velvet-pale-rose.htm And I've also put in the neutral curtains I've used in the first mock up, just so you can see the effect of the different colours. But it all depends on the furniture too, not just on the carpet. Anyway, hope it helps.
