Description
Carro is a printed eyelet curtain that leads with its pattern: a bold arrangement of abstract geometric shapes, semicircles, bars and rounded blocks, in near-black against a warm cream ground. The face is woven from 100% cotton in a half-panama construction, which gives the cloth a firm, slightly textured hand that holds a fold well and takes a printed design cleanly. Sold as a pair, these curtains carry room-darkening qualities, so they earn their place at a window where you want the light knocked back rather than simply softened.
The eyelet heading slides straight onto a pole, which makes hanging and drawing them quick, and the ring spacing gives that even, rolling wave you can see falling down the drop. This is a curtain for a room where the print is meant to be noticed: a living room, a bedroom, a study with a large window or a set of French doors. The monochrome palette sits easily against pale walls, natural wood floors and simple furniture, and it pairs with the matching Carro cushion if you want the pattern to carry across the room. Choose your size by measuring your pole width for the fullness you want and your desired drop, remembering the width figure is the finished flat width of the pair.
The cotton face is soft yet durable and does not stain readily, which suits a curtain that gets handled every day. The lining is a 50% cotton and 50% polyester blend, adding body and helping with the light-blocking. Available across a range of pair widths and drops, from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, so there is a size for a modest window and for a full pair of doors. Style it plainly and let the shapes do the work.

Frequently Asked
Do these curtains block out the light?
They carry room-darkening qualities and are lined, so they knock back daylight well, though they are described as room-darkening rather than fully blackout.
What are the curtains made of?
The face is 100% cotton woven in a half-panama, which is firm and slightly textured. The lining is a 50% cotton and 50% polyester blend for extra body.
Is this price for one curtain or a pair?
Every size listed is sold as a pair of curtains, so you receive two panels ready to hang either side of your window.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure your pole width for the fullness you want and your drop from the pole to where you want the curtains to fall. The width figure is the finished flat width of the pair.
How do these curtains hang?
They have an eyelet heading, so the rings slide straight onto a curtain pole and the fabric falls into an even, rolling wave.
