Curtain Rod Color HELP.

I just updated my flooring and I am going to be hanging some off white curtains from Ikea.

I do not know what color curtain rods should I be buying? Brushed gold, silver tone, or matte black?

Any recommendations?

You can really go with anything - I think a dark bronze would look great in your space. If the only selections are the one you listed, I'd go with the matte black.

I would go with matte black to give it a nice contrast. 😊

I've been eyeing these on West Elm lately, currently on sale for 49.00/pair. They're linen, 96" long. Also on sale Plus a bunch of others, including patterned or solid, e.g. burlap. I can't quite make out your colors (more beige, greige, or gray?)

My curtain rings are a different bronze from my curtain rods. Not only that, when I decided to add more curtain panels, I could not find the same rings, so the latest rings are another shade of bronze, AND they are also slightly larger than the original. LOL Not only are they not noticeable (at least no one has mentioned it) but I don't notice anymore. Really cannot tell when they are hung high near the ceiling, anyway.

These are the options I have of metal rods - brushed silver, granite, brushed bronze and dark copper. I'm unable to find a matte silver without going custom. Thanks for the input Patricia, would any of the above options work in the space?

Once you have the actual curtain, and the mounting hardware is in place, you could try one of each if desired. Borrow a black rod from the next room, and try a gold style as well. Black would repeat your chair color and bring more contrast. However, gold would provide a little bling, and won't look as heavy against a light drape and wall. The white and gold balloons in the photo look good, and give some idea of how that combo might infuse a little life. Whichever you choose, I'd find a way to add a bit of color the dining space to break up all brown wood. Perhaps painting the mirror a fun color? Or switching out the white lampshades for a colorful shade. A table runner is another easy fix. If your budget allowed, you could do a more colorful rug, and also a size larger.

I’d definitely go matte black...every room should have some kind of black somewhere, it really makes a difference. It would also look great with your stone and wood on the fireplace.

I agree with other comments to go with a dark color - black or a very dark bronze.

What make / color are your floors? I’m redoing flooring in my house.

Black would make the rods POP in your pale room--is that what you want your rods to be a feature? Have the curtains ready, see what blends with them...I would suggest rethinking more pale and try some color......

@Alice Gallery, I think what you are doing is called "spamming".
