What Colours Go With a Gold Side Table?

Gold side tables sit comfortably with a surprisingly wide range of colours. Deep navy and forest green bring out their warmth, soft blush and terracotta add a gentle glow, charcoal and black create a sharper modern look, and warm whites keep a room light and calm.
