Brown

• Burgundy is generally known to be a conservative, sophisticated color, appropriate for upscale living rooms, dining rooms libraries and studies. This is why the colors burgundy and brown tend to pair up well together -- they both have a conservative appeal that is amplified when they're used side by side. Because these colors are both dark, they work best in large rooms with high ceilings and a lot of natural light.
  
  

Red

• Your burgundy curtains won't match all the other shades of red that you could place elsewhere in the room, but by including small touches of deep red in accessories like sofa pillows, flower vases and pictures on the wall, you'll give the room what it needs to justify the burgundy curtains.
  
  

Khaki

• Khaki is a very attractive neutral that can be paired with nearly any warm color. Your burgundy curtains will look especially attractive against khaki-colored walls or a khaki-colored sofa. Include accents of other darker colors in the room to balance the presence of a very light color with the dark burgundy curtains.
  
  

Gold

• Gold and burgundy combined in one space create an especially warm, almost regal, combination. In fact, gold and burgundy are often matched with each other in fabrics used to make furnishings and room accessories. In a room that uses gold and burgundy in combination, balance the warm colors with a cooler neutral like cream, to alleviate the intensity of the color scheme.
