The black color has a magical effect on the appearance of things. Though it conveys different feelings of sadness, pain or death in our social world it implies class, elegance and style in the world of decoration. There are different variations of black that are reminiscent of the dark sky at night. Its shades vary from very dark gray to coal black.

Black is often used with other colors in home décor creating a contrast of colors and making them look more brilliant and lively. If used with pale colors, it refreshes the ambience and if used with pure and soft colors it makes them brighter and clearer.

Black is also used in portraits, decoration accessories and lighting elements. It is among the best colors to be used in tapestries at home, in the office or in bedrooms. When added to other colors, it lightens them up and it makes accessories, mirrors and lamps look brighter and more cheerful.
