20 Black and Gold Bedroom Ideas With Pretty Details to Try

Looking for black and gold bedroom ideas that go beyond a few shiny pillows? Think dark paneled walls, gold-tone lights and even a little leopard print.

These images include all-out gold details plus simpler black-and-white rooms you could build on.

You can keep things simple or go all out. I especially love the oversized mirrors and little bedside lights.

Start with a detail you’d actually want in your room, whether that’s a new lamp or a whole statement headboard.

Bedroom ideas worth saving

black headboard and golden accents

We’re starting off strong with this pretty black headboard and white bedding. I love the little golden pillow in the middle.

The black bench has a gold-tone frame that brings the same colors to the foot of the bed.

Try a large black-and-white print above your headboard if you want to follow this look.

gold bench and ornate mirror

How gorgeous is that mirror? The curvy gold-colored frame looks so good above the black dresser, especially with those matching drawer pulls.

A gold-topped bench and sparkling chandelier take this room in a dressier direction. Keep a white band across the bedding if you like the lighter detail shown here.

sunburst mirror and framed walls

If you are looking for lots of gold details, then this one is for you. There’s a sunburst mirror, gold-edged nightstands and even thin gold-colored rectangles on the black walls.

I am obsessed with the white bench at the foot of the bed. It’s such a pretty choice beside all those dark surfaces.

patterned runner and gold curtains

This is another room that goes all out with gold. I love the patterned bed runner and the long golden curtains beside the black wall.

Try a plain black bench like this one if you’re already using plenty of pattern on your bed and rug.

rust accents and tall artwork

Who says you have to stick to just two colors? The rust-colored throw and pillows look so pretty with the black headboard and gold-tone lighting.

The three tall prints above the bed repeat those same shades. Start with artwork you love, then borrow one of its colors for your bedding.

leopard prints and spiral lamps

How cute is this bedroom collage? Not gonna lie, those spiral lamps are my favorite part!

The stepped black headboard has a gold-colored outline that makes it worth a closer look.

Try a leopard cushion or one animal print if you want to borrow the playful details without using the whole matching furniture collection.

tall headboard and leopard bedding

I am obsessed with this extra-tall black headboard. The ornate gold-colored top looks gorgeous beside the arched mirror.

Leopard bedding takes up plenty of space here, with a black throw draped over the end. Don’t forget the gold-colored tassels if that’s the detail you love most.

glowing edges and shiny pillows

If you want a bedroom with a little extra glow, this one has plenty of inspiration. Light outlines the bed base and runs above the striped wall behind the headboard.

I love the shiny pillows on the black bench. They’re a smaller detail to borrow if you’re not planning any lighting changes.

botanical prints and trailing plants

Don’t want to go overboard with the decor? This black-and-white room keeps things simple with botanical prints, trailing plants and a black throw.

There aren’t obvious gold accents here; the yellowish glow comes from the ceiling lights. For a gold addition, I’d try a small gold-tone lamp on the nightstand.

mustard pillows and a striped rug

This mustard-and-black pairing may just be one of my favorites here. The little round pouf picks up the pillow color, while a gold-tone pendant hangs beside the bed.

The black-and-white rug has big, sweeping lines. Keep that in mind if you want pattern without adding another color.

dark ceiling and starburst light

Love a really dark bedroom? This one carries the black onto the ceiling, with a gold-tone starburst light overhead.

The slim gold-colored frames and arched mirror are gorgeous against those walls. You could try those smaller details first before committing to a dark ceiling.

pale headboard and golden curtains

I love this pale tufted headboard against the black wall. The gold-colored bed runner and full-length curtains make the room feel dressed up without needing a dark bed frame.

A small round mirror sits above the bed between two tall artworks. That flower-like frame is such a pretty detail.

black plank wall and slim lights

If you’re looking for something a little simpler, go with this black accent wall and white bedding. The slim gold-tone ceiling light and matching wall lights add just a little shine.

I especially love how the dark wall follows the pointed ceiling. Three small prints are all it needs above the bed.

dark slats and lighted shelves

The lion portrait is such a good detail in this dark gray room. Black curtains frame both windows, with more dark color across the bedding and slatted wall.

This room has golden light rather than obvious gold decor. If you want to bring in that finish, a gold-tone picture frame would be a simple addition.

curved headboard and slim sconces

Don’t want lots of shiny accessories? No problem! Try a pair of slim gold-tone wall lights like these beside a pale curved headboard.

The black paneled wall is left free of artwork. I’d keep it that way here, especially with those lovely sconces on either side.

globe lights and paired artwork

This is another black accent wall, but the round lights give it a different look. I love the hanging bedside globes and the branching ceiling fixture with little gold-tone connections.

Two large abstract pictures sit above the headboard. Choose a similar pair if you’d rather have bigger artwork than a group of small frames.

ornate gold and zebra stripes

OMG, how gorgeous is this headboard? The curled gold-colored trim and matching sunburst mirrors are hard to miss.

Then there’s the zebra-striped bench! If you want to try the pattern without changing your furniture, a striped cushion would be a smaller way to bring it in.

leopard accents and picture lights

The leopard fans have another room to save. This one repeats the print on the pillows, bed runner and shaped rug, with black cushions tucked behind.

I especially love the gold-tone picture lights over the three framed prints. An arched mirror beside the bed adds another thin golden outline.

gold diamonds and globe lamps

If you are looking for a simple wall decoration, this one is for you. Two overlapping gold-colored diamonds sit above the pale headboard.

The round bedside lamps are just as pretty. Keep the white bedding and black throw if you want to follow this room without adding more patterns.

hanging plants and golden pots

Last but definitely not least, we have this pretty plant-filled corner. I love the gold-colored hanging pots against the dark walls!

Black planters and pale knotted hangers give you a few different details to work with.

Try a single hanging planter beside your bed if you want a smaller version of this look, choosing a plant that suits the light in your room.
