When it comes to decor, chrome home accessories are the gift that keeps on giving. Shiny catch-alls adorning your coffee table, sleek chrome lamps glowing in your living room, even your breakfast table could benefit from chromatic ornamentation.
Unexpected chrome details may not be a new interior design trend, but it’s certainly still the hottest. And although somewhat futuristic in appearance, chrome decor ideas are utterly timeless — and well worth investing in. The reflective silver coating works across color schemes and design styles, making it an easy detail to dot throughout your existing decor.
So, looking for a starting point or the finishing piece to your highly polished interior? From bookshelves to matchbox sleeves, here are 21 of my favorite chrome home accessories to shop that will make your home shine (in more ways than one).
Urban Outfitters
Martini Side Table
Starting strong, because I think I just found the chrome home accessory of my dreams. All my fellow dirty martini lovers, behold: the martini side table from Urban Outfitters. Let the olive-like topper shine on its own, or adorn the polished surface with a matching chrome table lamp. There is no way to go wrong with this work of art.
Tom Dixon
Bell Portable Silver
A portable, rechargeable table lamp is the only kind of lamp I am interested in these days. Without the hassle of a cord, you can place this lamp anywhere in your home and create an uninterrupted ambiance. This piece by Tom Dixon (inspired by vintage car bumpers) has become an icon (and you can currently score it on sale).
H&M
Stainless Steel Triple Serving Bowl
A host with the most always has a chic serving dish or two. With this stainless steel serving bowl from H&M, you can have three in one. In fact, H&M’s entire bistro tableware collection is full of incredibly chic chrome home accessories. Perhaps the stainless steel tray is the piece you need to add to your hosting collection?
ALESSI
Roost Aluminium Egg Cup Set
Maybe it’s just me, but egg holders have been all over my interior design feed lately. That said, I’ve not spotted one quite like this chrome set from Italian designer ALESSI. The top comes off to reveal two geometric egg cups, adding a modern element to the traditional breakfast table. It’s a piece that completely elevates your home cafe.
Anthropologie
Chantel Mirror
Chrome home accessories are reminiscent of the Space Age, and bubble motifs and curved edges emulate that design style perfectly. I’m a firm believer that statement mirrors are the brooch of interior design, meaning that adding a decorative piece like this to your wall will instantly elevate a blank space.
Decor Walther
Chrome Soap Dish
Buying a chrome soap dish for £110 is exactly the kind of extra I strive to be. This piece from ABASK has pedestals to lift it off the bathroom counter and a slight indentation in the plate to keep the soap from slipping off. Not a bar soap kind of person? Don’t worry, ABASK also has a chrome soap dispenser on offer.
If you were to only pick one chrome home accessory, let it be this statement candle holder. Not only does the soft glow of candlelight provide the ultimate mood lighting, but a good candle holder doubles as art. Wherever you put it, this twisted chrome candle holder is the perfect pop of chrome.
West Elm
Polished Metal Vase, Large
Chrome home accessories should be eye-catching and contemporary, which is exactly how you can describe this large pillar vase. It would make a statement on any mantel or entryway, and the reflective silver finish makes it easy to style. But, the real plus to this piece is that you can flip it over and use it as a candle pedestal.
Zaha Hadid Design
Duo Metallic Salt and Pepper Grinders
Salt and pepper shakers are meant to be the topic of conversation at any table, and this metallic duo set from Zaha Hadid Design is the ultimate style symbol. The abstract shape adds a bit of playfulness while the silver metallic finish keeps a timeless quality. You can truly style this set on any tablescape.
Olympia
Contemporary Stainless Steel Water Jug
I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect beside carafe, and this chrome water jug may have just answered my call. With a long, thin body and straight handle, this modern jug has a strikingly contemporary appearance, perfect for bringing the restaurant aesthetic home. Plus, the covered spout retains ice and reduces unwanted spills.
Urban Outfitters
Alana Chrome Bookshelf
Alright, this piece may be on the line when it comes to what we’d define as an ‘accessory’, but when a mid-century inspired bookshelf is only £229, I have to include it. It’s slim, sleek, and perfect for any small space or apartment. The wooden shelves ground the shiny chrome finish, and add that charming touch of retro-chic.
Anthropologie
Betty Stainless Steel Footed Bowl
Chrome and stainless steel tableware have been all over my social media as of late, and I couldn’t be more obsessed. Nothing feels more fashionable than serving your dips and dessert out of a footed chrome coupe. Dinner parties are always more successful when the accessories are stylish.
West Elm UK
Tubular Metal Bookend – Chrome
Often overlooked, bookshelf decor is the ultimate sign of a curated interior. Putting thought into the details, the little moments that make a room sing, is what will ultimately elevate your design. ‘Bookshelf wealth’, of course, means a solid collection of novels, but chrome bookends to keep everything in place? Now that’s elegant.
Alessi
Blip Spoon Rest, Silver
Believe it or not, this chrome home accessory is not just pretty, but practical too. Spoon holders aren’t always top of mind, but they’re total game-changers for those who love to cook. Upgrade the mundane with this chrome spoon for only £25. Plus, there are other matching pieces of John Lewis, like a chrome tea bag spoon.
MATILDA GOAD & CO.
Fish Matchbox Sleeve, Silver
It’s official: sardine decor was everywhere this summer. The trend transports us to coastal holidays, but to carry this summer style into the rest of the year, I’ve got my eyes on this fish matchbox sleeve. A matchbox sleeve feels curated, nostalgic, and is a staple for every cool home — especially when it’s chrome.
H&M
Stainless Steel Side Table
No chrome home accessories list is complete without a sleek, chrome metallic side table. Reminiscent of the mid-century modern furniture mixed with Space Age style, this piece arrives fully assembled and ready to style. The streamlined cubic shape and shiny coat strike a balance between minimalism and playfulness.
Holloways of Ludlow
Frama T-Lamp
Who said all chrome lamps had to be mushroom-shaped? While this style is more of a brushed steel, it’s shiny, silver, stylish, and still makes my list. Its simple tilt mechanism allows the top to pivot, casting light from multiple angles. Plus, there’s a dimmer switch so you can adjust your lamp’s light accordingly.
Dunelm
Luxe Decorative Tray
A silver decorative tray is the easiest way to organize a desktop or dresser. Not to mention, it instantly adds a luxurious aspect. Use this piece to organize your bathroom accessories, display your favorite perfumes, or keep keys and everyday essentials in one place. Whether it’s in the bedroom, hallway, or office, it brings a polished look.
Søstrene Grene
Candleholder
This product is part of the brand’s autumn collection ‘Tiny Stories’, where the goal is to inspire you to make the most of your living space and fill it with joy and personality. A little touch of chrome adds just the right amount of fashionable flair.
Next
Silver Chrome Wall Shelf
Mini floating wall shelves have easily become my favorite styling trend of 2025. Need an extra corner by your bedside or bathroom sink? Want a convenient place to drop your keys? A mini shelf does the trick. The chrome finish only makes it that much more stylish. This one from Next is larger than it looks, sizing up at 80 x 16 cm.
Sophie Lou Jacobsen
Spiral Coasters
Livingetc’s home wellness writer, Amiya Baratan, introduced me to these artisanal coasters from product designer Sophie Lou Jacobsen, whose work focuses on enhancing the enjoyment of everyday objects. Color me obsessed.
