An exotic wall covering can instantly amplify a room, especially when architecture is lacking. In recent years, metallic wall coverings have made a come back and in some exciting ways. I like when glamorous gold, silver and bronze are woven into natural textures such as grass cloth, jute and shells. The mix is a fun and dressed up look for cork and raffia, which are often used in more casual settings. Here are a few that I can't wait to use!

| Close up of "Mother Of Pearl Aphrodite" by Maya Romanoff shown on wall in first photo. Colorways from left to right are "Golden Pearl" and "Patina Abalone". This would make a stunning entry hall in a house by the ocean. |
 |
| The subtly shiny backgrounds lend elegance to these "Metallic Paper Weaves" by Phillip Jeffries Ltd. Colorways shown are 3513, 3514 and 3511. |
 |
| The gold background makes this check reflective and modern. "Interlace" by Weitzner. |
 |
| Innovations "Paperweave in Brass" would look gorgeous on walls, a ceiling or as the face of a cabinet. |
 |
| This gilded cork is rich in depth and color variation. I would use in a space that gets lots of natural sunshine since the tone and reflection change depending on the light. "Cork" in honey by Innovations. |
 |
| This interlocking design looks like raffia but is actually pulp made from Mulberry and Salago. If framed in glass, it would make a cool room divider. "Currents" by Weitzner. |
 |
| "Oracle" by Weitzner is made from tree bark and hand-gilded. The open fretwork allows for you to customize the look by layering the paper over surface painted in the color of your choice. |
