Rainstorm & Copper: A Western Bedroom, Sourced

Copper · Velvet · Teal

There’s an hour at the end of the day when everything turns to copper.

The lamps come on. The velvet goes dark and deep. The copper bedding catches the light like it’s been waiting for it all afternoon.

And in the Rainstorm & Copper bath, a hammered copper tub is filling under a crystal chandelier.

We designed this suite for that hour. Then we went looking for the real pieces you’d need to bring it home, and for every piece, we’ll tell you why we chose it.

The bed that builds the room

Everything in this room hangs from the bed, literally. Four tall posts and a canopy frame give the velvet somewhere to fall. As much as we love the bed in our concept room, we couldn’t find one exactly like it. But we did find two that come close, each with slightly different styling.

If you want warm metal and a refined line: the Kenton Canopy Bed by Wesley Allen. It’s an iron canopy bed with an upholstered headboard. Order it in Aged Iron or Aged Bronze with Yosemite Chestnut upholstery, a leather-look vinyl in deep saddle brown, so the frame reads dark and the headboard reads like a well-worn saddle. It comes in Queen, California King and Eastern King, through Western Passion.

If you want a headboard a little closer to the one in our room: the 42616 Upholstered Canopy Bed by Corsican. Its camel-hump upholstered headboard is the nearer match of the two. It’s hand-forged and made to order in your choice of 80 finishes, and you can order finish samples before you commit. We’d find it at Jack and Jill Boutique.

Either way, the bed gives the room its architecture. The western details come from everything you layer onto it.

Velvet in two colors

The bedding is why this room glows. We used Paseo Road’s Stella Collection in two colors: Copper Brown on the bed, and Storm Blue at the canopy and on the Euro shams.

For the canopy itself, we’d hang Paseo Road’s Stella Faux Silk Velvet Curtains in Storm Blue from every rail, and let them fall all the way to the floor. That’s what turns a four-poster into a room of its own.

Those are our picks, but Stella is a whole collection, with a variety of colors and bedding choices. It includes duvet covers, quilts, coverlets, throws, shams and pillows, so you can build the entire bed in velvet, or layer it into the bedding you already love.

Stella is a faux silk velvet with a pile that shifts with the light. It looks almost metallic by lamplight and almost black at the corners. Using one collection in two colors keeps the bed rich without looking busy. Finish it with Paseo Road’s Ruched Rabbit Double-Sided Throw at the foot, for something soft to pull up when the evening cools.

The leather bolster

The tooled leather bolster across the middle is our favorite detail in the room. As much as we’d love to find one exactly like it, the closest we found is the Talabartero Embroidered Bolster from L’Aviva Home in Almendra, a warm camel. Talabartero means master saddler. The collection draws on the stitching and tooling of vintage saddles from Colombia’s coffee country, and it’s made with master craftsman Edgar Beltrán Jaramillo and his workshop in Bogotá.

In front of the Storm Blue Euros, we’d set a pair of Whisky River Natural pillows from Sweetwater Trading Company. Their southwestern pattern is framed in rich brown leather, so they add pattern without adding another loud fabric. The rug already carries plenty of pattern, so stop at two.

The nightstand corner

This is the corner where you set down your rings at the end of the night.

We’d start with the Old World Nightstand from DeMejico. It’s built by hand from reclaimed wood with hand-forged iron pulls, and its dark finish lets the copper lamp above it shine. On top goes a hammered copper table lamp from Wildwood, its glow turning the velvet beside it amber.

Two small things finish the corner. A copper ring dish from Tactile Melodies gives your turquoise cuff somewhere to land. And the drapes are caught back with round copper concho tiebacks from Lone Star Western Decor. That’s the detail we hunted hardest for, and the one that makes the canopy look tailored rather than hung.

The rug: two ways to ground it

Both of our favorites come from Southwest Looms, a boutique rug maker that weaves in New Zealand wool.

Highland Peak Teal is the one we’d choose for this room. It has a deep teal field with a band of brick red, ivory and tan through the middle. The teal echoes the velvet drapes, and the brick red picks up the copper bedding, so the rug pulls the whole palette together.

Ombre is for the bolder room. It’s hand-knotted from hand-spun wool in big painterly bands of blue, teal, terra-cotta, gold and purple. It makes the floor the statement, so if you choose it, keep the pillows quiet.

A seat at the foot, a chair by the window

At the end of the bed, a leather bench gives you somewhere to sit and pull off your boots. We’d choose the Rafaela Leather Bench through Western Passion. It’s genuine leather finished with clavos and an iron accent, and each one is made start to finish by a single artisan in Mexico. Ask for it in a darker leather and wood to match this room.

By the window, a deep leather chair makes a reading corner: the Winchester Tufted Leather Lounge Chair from Adobe Interiors.

Drench it in Rainstorm

The walls are what make the velvet look this rich.

We’d use Sherwin-Williams Rainstorm (SW 6230). It’s a deep blue-teal, a shade darker and bluer than the Storm Blue velvet, so the drapes read as fabric instead of melting into the wall.

Paint the walls, the paneling and the trim all in one color. That color drench is what makes simple molding look like old paneled walls.

One honest note: screens shift color. Before you buy a gallon, order a peel-and-stick sample of Rainstorm from Samplize, put it on your own wall next to your fabric, and look at it in the morning and again by lamplight.

And then the house goes quiet

By evening, this room becomes something else. The velvet deepens. The copper catches every bit of lamplight. Your turquoise comes off into the little copper dish beside the bed, your boots land under the bench, and somewhere through the door, a tub is beginning to fill.

Leave the overhead lights off. Draw the velvet. Turn on the lamps.

This bedroom has a bath you won’t want to miss: the Rainstorm & Copper bath, with its hammered copper tub.
