The new autumn colours from Rustik Lys: warmth and atmosphere for the fall
The days are getting shorter, and we're lighting our candles more often in the evenings. With the new autumn colors from Rustik Lys, you can instantly bring more warmth into your home: deep shades of brown, calm greens, and warm earth tones that are easy to combine with one another.
Rustik Lys is known for quality candles that have been made in Europe for years. The candles come in many different colors, shapes, and sizes. This allows you to combine colors from different collections and create a new arrangement time and again.
Warm colors for the autumn
Several warm and natural shades have been added for the autumn. Chestnut and Espresso provide deep brown tones, while Moss green and Olive add green and tranquility.
Chestnut: warm chestnut brown
Chestnut is a warm chestnut brown color. A beautiful shade for those who enjoy working with brown, green, and other earth tones. This hue is reminiscent of autumn leaves, wooden furniture, and a crackling fireplace.
For example, combine Chestnut with Nature for a warm ensemble. With Moss green or Olive, the combination becomes slightly darker, while Espresso creates a variety of brown tones side by side.
Espresso: deep chocolate brown
Espresso is darker than Chestnut and has a deep chocolate brown color. This makes the color work well as a dark accent among lighter candles. It is a powerful color that immediately radiates warmth.
Chestnut and Espresso also pair nicely together. Add, for example, Nature to lighten the dark brown tones, or combine Espresso with Terracotta for a warm combination.
Moss green: soothing natural color
Moss green brings the natural atmosphere from outdoors into your home. The color is calm, atmospheric, and just a bit softer than a dark green shade.
Moss green combines beautifully with wood, ceramics, linen, and other natural materials.
Together with Chestnut or Terracotta, it creates a warm autumn palette. Prefer a fresher look? Combine moss green with nature and cream.
Olive: soft and timeless green
Olive is a soft, greyish green tone, a lovely color to combine with both light and dark shades. The color has a calm appearance and therefore fits not only in autumn but actually throughout the entire year.
Olive looks beautiful next to Nature, Terracotta, and Chestnut. You can also use Olive and Moss green together if you want to combine different green tones for a tone-on-tone effect.
New colors in the sustainable stearin collection
In addition to the standard collection, three beautiful new shades are available within the stearin collection : nature, raspberry, and terracotta.
Nature; warm natural shade
Don't let the name lead you too much with this color. Nature is not a beige or cream color, but a warm yellowish shade with a distinct ochre undertone.
This is precisely why Nature combines beautifully with the dark colors from the autumn collection. For instance, place Nature next to Chestnut and Espresso for a warm color palette, or combine the color with Moss green and Olive.
Raspberry: a surprising color accent
Raspberry provides a bit more color among the brown, green, and earthy autumn tones. It is a deep, warm pink shade that you can use well as an accent color.
A few Raspberry candles between Nature, Espresso, or Chestnut immediately give the combination something more playful without needing many different colors.
Terracotta: warm and inviting earth tone
Terracotta is a warm earth color with a distinct orange-brown undertone. The shade is reminiscent of baked clay, autumn leaves, and sunny Mediterranean interiors.
The color pairs well with Olive and Moss green, but can also be placed next to Chestnut. With Nature, you get a warm combination of yellow and orange tones.
How to combine the new colors
Of course, you don't have to choose just one color. Precisely by combining different shades, you can easily compose your own color palette.
A few combinations that go well together:
- Warm and calm: Chestnut, Espresso, and Nature
- Green and natural: Moss green, Olive, and Nature
- Earthy: Terracotta, Chestnut, and Olive
- With some extra color: Raspberry, Nature, and Espresso
- Tone-on-tone brown: Chestnut, Espresso, and Terracotta
You can also play with different shapes and heights. For example, place dinner candles in different candle holders together, or combine dinner candles with pillar candles. This naturally creates more variation in height and shape.
