This Moody Hue is Having a Moment Right Now, and We've Found the Best Way to Shop It (On Sale, Of Course)
As winter weather starts to settle in, it's time to switch out your "unexpected red" for something a little smoother
This year (and leading into next), design trends are all about embracing subtle moments of drama. What that looks like is wood-drenched rooms, shiny finishes like gloss paint and chrome, and deeply saturated colors with muted undertones, like oxblood.
We've already predicted that the oxblood color trend will be everywhere in 2025. The rich, "sexy" shade is an elegant evolution of the "unexpected red theory" that took 2024 by storm. And the best time to shop for it? You bet, in Black Friday's best home deals.
From smaller pieces like taper candles to bigger finds like rugs and side tables, I've scoured the sale sections to find all the best oxblood decor to inspire you. With Christmas right around the corner, a deep red throw can easily double as on-trend holiday decor, and these other home goods fit in right alongside it.

Price: $11.50/set of 6, Was: $16.50
Candles are a mood-setting must-have. These taper candles from Pottery Barn are crafted of pure unscented paraffin wax with a cotton wick so that you can create a glowing dreamy environment anywhere in the house.
Price: $16.99, Was: $29.50
Oxblood eucalyptus leaves were not a decor item I had in mind, but I love these faux branches from Pottery Barn. They have a wire center so they can be arranged stunningly on their own, or mixed into another bouquet.
Price: $499, Was: $849
The best part of Black Friday is that you can shop for things that have been on your wish list for a price you will not see again. Though $499 after the sale is still no easy purchase, this gorgeous marble end table is a stunning oxblood accent and at about half the price it normally is.
Price: $99.95, Was: $140
Everybody wants a Le Creuset cookware set, right? (Did you see the Le Creuset Dutch oven tote bag they just dropped?) Their oval gratin baker in oxblood is just too chic, and thankfully, Williams-Sonoma has it on sale right now, in 1oz, 3oz, and as a pair.
Price: $51, Was: $68
Throws and pillows are the easiest (and most affordable) way to keep up with changing color trends and seasons. Lulu and Georgia says, "With piped edges and ribbed siding, this decorative pillow adds a playful touch to any sofa or accent chair," and I couldn't agree more.
Price: $120, Was: $140
Size: Medium
I found out about this rich Mulberry tablecloth when Bed Threads launched their holiday tableware collection. It hits the oxblood trend while also being a great score for holiday entertaining. And it comes in linen napkins, too!
Price: from $103.20, Was: $129
Sizes: 2'x3', 3'x5', 4'x6', 5'x7', 6'x9', 8'x10', 9'x12', 10'x14'
A rug is always a big purchase, so scoring one on sale is always a good idea. This rug has "a classic Persian theme with a farmhouse feel" that will go in any space, and the oxblood color is a subtle touch in this design. Use code HOLLY24 at checkout.
Price: $69.96, Was: $99.95
A chic cozy throw is all you need this holiday season, and this oxblood one from Crate and Barrel will do just fine! Crate and Barrel describes it as "A trio of knitting stitches unite in a throw blanket with a wealth of texture and coziness." And for a sale price? I am sold.
Price: $20, Was: $25
Last but not least, I had to throw a Christmas decor idea in the mix. Oxblood is the perfect way to elevate traditional Christmas decor. The rich undertones make it a chic contrast against creamy neutrals and olive greens. Pair this paper tree on a tablescape and you have the perfect holiday dinner centerpiece.
