Description
The Dawn curtains are a pair of pencil pleat panels in a soft-textured, marl-effect polyester. The weave carries a subtle fleck rather than a flat single tone, which is what gives the natural, oatmeal-beige cloth its depth in the light. Sold as a pair and offered across eight sizes, from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, so you can match the drop and the width of the window rather than settling for the nearest fit. The pencil pleat heading gathers the fabric into neat, even folds and hooks onto a standard curtain track or rings on a pole.
These suit a living room, a bedroom or any window where you want to hold back light and draught. The neutral, marl-flecked beige works with warm wood floors, cream and grey furnishings and the kind of relaxed, pared-back room the photographs show. Because the panels come as a pair, one SKU dresses one window; measure your track width and remember pencil pleat curtains gather to roughly half their flat width, so a generous fabric width gives you the fuller, softer stack you can see hanging here. The longest drop, at 229cm, is aimed at tall windows and full-length glazed doors.
The face is woven polyester, backed with a laminated blackout lining, and the supplier rates the pair for thermal performance, keeping warmth in through winter and heat out in summer. Polyester holds its shape well, resists creasing and is hard-wearing, so the folds stay crisp with everyday use. The heading is reversible, and the supplier names a coordinating Dawn reversible cushion if you want to carry the same soft texture through to a sofa, chair or bed.

Frequently Asked
Do these curtains block out the light?
Yes. The face fabric is backed with a laminated blackout lining, so the pair is designed to keep a room dark and hold back daylight at the window.
Will they fit my curtain pole or track?
The pencil pleat heading works on a standard track or on rings on a pole. Check the width figure is the panel width per pair before ordering.
What size should I choose for a tall window?
The drops run up to 229cm and the widths up to 229cm per pair, so the largest options are aimed at tall windows and full-length glazed doors.
What is the fabric made of?
The face is one hundred per cent woven polyester with a soft, marl-effect texture. Polyester holds its shape, resists creasing and is hard-wearing in daily use.
Do pencil pleat curtains need to be wider than the window?
Yes. Pencil pleat headings gather the fabric, so choose a width generously wider than your track to get full, even folds when the curtains are drawn.
