Putting these two hues into space brings these worlds together in a magnificent way!

If you paint your walls black or have a sink in a dark shade, a few of these ideas are easy to do to elevate a bathroom, no matter the size. So keep scrolling to get inspired to incorporate the classy black and gold duo into your bathrooms.

1. Sinking in gold

A bathroom with a gold sink can have a level of opulence by tying in a gold faucet, mirror, and other accents like the black marble and gold soap dispenser, toothbrush holder, and soap dish.

2. Matte finish

If you don't want to go too dark on your walls, think about a muted shade of black with brass tones for the accent lighting and faucet to tie it all together.

3. Seductive powder room

Black walls, an attractively textured backsplash, a dark sink, and a matching faucet set the stage for a room filled with luxurious mystery. The gold accents found on the mirror, draw pulls, dish, and Buddha sculpture are the perfect additions for a touch of glamour.
