Acorn Multi Jacquard Chenille Pencil Pleat Curtains - Stone/Sage

These are pencil pleat curtains woven as a jacquard chenille in the Acorn design, sold as a pair. The pattern was originally drawn in 1879 from the wooden Morris & Co. hand-printing blocks, and here it is reworked as a woven jacquard rather than a print, so the acorns, oak leaves and trailing stems are formed in the cloth itself. On the stone and sage colourway you get soft green foliage, muted tan acorns and small blush-pink flowers on a pale ground, with the chenille pile catching the light and giving the surface a gentle depth.

They suit a sitting room, a bedroom or a study where you want a decorative window and a fabric that feels substantial in the hand. The chenille weave has a soft, slightly plush face that reads as warm and settled rather than crisp, which sits comfortably against wooden furniture, painted panelling and neutral walls. The design has a repeating vertical rhythm, so on a wide window the pattern carries evenly across both curtains when they are drawn. There is a matching cushion in the same design if you want to tie the seating into the window.

The heading is a pencil pleat, which gathers the fabric into tight vertical folds and hooks onto a standard track or pole, so these are straightforward to hang and easy to draw. They come in eight sizes, from 117 x 137cm up to 228 x 228cm, the first figure being the width per curtain and the second the drop, so measure your track or pole width and your desired length before choosing. The fabric is 100% polyester, which holds colour well, resists creasing and drapes with weight. Style them simply with tie-backs, or leave them to fall full for a softer look.

Are these curtains sold as a pair?

Yes, each size is supplied as a pair of curtains, with the first measurement being the width of each individual curtain and the second the drop.

What kind of heading do they have?

What is the fabric made from?

How do I choose the right size?

Measure the width of your track or pole and the drop you want, then match to the eight sizes running from 117 x 137cm up to 228 x 228cm per pair.

Is the pattern printed or woven in?

The Acorn design is woven into the fabric as a jacquard rather than printed on top, so the foliage and acorns are formed in the cloth itself.
