She's shiny, she's statement, she's stylish. She's that piece of metal home decor you need to bring home pronto! It's true, metal is the future of home decor, folks. And if you haven't started hoarding on bespoke pieces that will only elevate your home aesthetic that much more, you're not following in the footsteps of what every home designer is doing out there. Besides, metal home decor or accessories are an investment. They will last for as long as time (no whoops, it slipped and broke scenes) and make for happy hand me downs when the time comes. To help you join this metal crusade we at LBB have pulled out our metal detectors (wink, wink) to curate 15 metal home accessories just for you!

That Textured Metal Planter
An easy way to bring metal into your lives, especially if you're in two minds is by investing in a planter, like this Golden Textured Metal Planter from Unlimited Greens. It won't be the center of attention but when/if someone spots it, expect locked eyes and enquiries. The texture on this one is killer, one you'd want to run your fingers on and it is 8x8x8 inches (not too big). Plus, it comes in a deep copper colour with beaded designs on top of the planter.
Where Do I Place This: Balcony or a study table
That Shimmery Metal Vase
Impractical when you come to think of it. Vases made in a material other than metal that is. Simply because they are most prone to breakage! This peacock and grass-green coloured brass vase planter from Nakshikathaa will put an end to that for good while looking fine. It has that opulent finish and at the same time, having a minimal dome like design. An absolute beauty, we say!
Where Do I Place This: Study table or over your shelve space. You can also have it placed on wall hanging shelves.
That Boho Metal Kettle
Who said metal doesn't fit into desi aesthetic? When you see Vintage Vistara's beautiful hand-painted kettles that can nonchalantly sit on any table and blend in yet stand out, you'd admit defeat. This Red and Gold Metallic (aluminium) Kettle is all kinds of pretty and the attention to detail is wow. The brand has a slew of different colours and designs in the same on Shop On LBB. #MustHaveMetalHomeDecor
Where Do I Place This: Dining table, centre table during festivals or on the side table right next to the sofa.
If you like a blend of pop and monochrome in your home decor, buy this kettle for the pop and check out these grey decor pieces to mix and match.
That Fancy Metal Trinket Box
This metal and glass box from Mason Homes looks oh so classy with its hexagonal shaped brass cuts. The box is super useful when it comes to storing titbits, jewellery, even important cards. This piece of metal decor is perfect for that minimalist home where statement pieces such as these work wonders. You can even use this to store sweets and dry fruits during festivals.
Where Do I Place This: On your centre-table but you can also have them placed in your room with snacks you love binging on.
That Gold Etching Napkin Ring
Metal (not steel) finding its way to our dining tables is something we've been loving lately. If you're one to entertain on the regular, invest in these Gold Etched Napkin Rings from Amaya Decors. Minimal and classic, there is nothing fancy and we love the patterned cuts along the circumference of the aluminium napkin holders. Another fine example of decorative and functional!
Where Do I Place This: Dining table or basically any table you'll be having your meals on. You can even use these for small towels or handkerchiefs.
That Set Of Chic Metal Urlis
Urlis have found their way out of the kitchen to join the decor gang and all we can say is, 'yay!'. It's almost like they belonged there. We love the modern upgrade The Decor Remedy has given this traditional utensil in their flower shaped Brass Urlis. This lovely decorative bowl is perfect to float flowers and candles in.
Where Do I Place This: Place them at the entrance or the corners of your home.
That Rustic Metal Home Accent
If you want to tread on the offbeat rather than chic route when it comes to metal home accessories, KhojCrafts has got you, boo! Especially in this Wise One owl accent that almost looks like a collectable or souvenir of sorts. One you would want to pick, inspect and ask questions about. It's ruggedness is sure to appeal to those who go after the unique.

That Metallic Cast Iron Hook & Hanger

So sturdy and useful, This works well on dark-coloured walls and the textured body adds to the design. Be sure to clean this with a soft cloth to keep the finish intact.

That Iron Mandala Lantern
Pretty sure you've pinned a couple hundred Turkish lamp images in hopes of owning one, but God forbid, you break one of these beauties and your lit world crashes! All of this can be avoided just by purchasing metal home decor, like this Mandala Cut Out Design Geometric Lantern from August Collectives. It not only screams elegance, but the mandala work on the iron lantern transports us to the Fatehpur Sikri. The light of the candle seeps through the shape of the lantern and we love the effect it gives off.
Where Do I Place This: Beside the wall, any corner would do so that you could see the light casting the mandala design on the walls.
Pro-Tip: Here are more quirky and different lanterns you would love to add to cart.
That White Antique Wall Light
For those who love antiques in your home, this antique brocade shade wall light from Fos Lighting will fit right into that aesthetic. It looks minimally regal with its aluminium lamp hooks and fabric lantern and we love how the lights illuminate the prints on the fabric and lend a golden-brown shade to the lamp. The piece is not too much for the eye and yet, has substance in terms of art and structure.
Where Do I Place This: On walls in your hallway or bedroom.

That Iron Tea Light Holder
This Fish-shaped iron tealight holder from House Of Sajja is a charming accent not just because of its handcrafted design but also because of its use in giving muted lighting to a space.

Where Do I Place This: You can have this anywhere, really but we would recommend spaces in your bedroom.
That Must-Have Metal Globe
