Re: Which would you prefer, and why?

I like gold with cream, it is so warm and elegant, especially in a formal setting with candles.

Hi mominohio, my first choice is always gold tone with cream, simply because I am not a silver person. The gold seems warmer and more inviting.

Are you a silver or a gold person?

I like mixed metals so I would use both.

Gold for sure ~ the same reasons as mentioned above. I would definitely use gold charger plates. For Christmas, I usually use a cream table cloth, gold charger plates, white dishes, and gold utensils. Splash with red.

Gold, because cream will be used as a base (both are warm colors).

I vote for whichever is your personal favorite. What do you use elsewhere in your house? Which do you like best in jewelry? That's the one I'd pick. Both combinations can be lovely.

My vote is for silver. It is very formal looking and I love silverware, not gold place settings. I love the more updated look with silver and ivory!

Gold is 'warm' like cream is, so I would contrast with 'cool' silver instead.
