Galaxy Chenille Fully Lined Eyelet Curtains - Charcoal

Galaxy is a pair of fully lined eyelet curtains woven from yarn-dyed chenille, a chunky, textured pile that gives the fabric its soft hand and gentle sheen. The charcoal cloth is not a flat grey: look closely and the yarn runs from near-black through pale silver, with tiny flecks of gold catching the light across the surface. Chenille is woven from short lengths of pile that stand proud of the base cloth, which is what gives these curtains their weight and their soft, matt-to-shimmer depth as the light moves across them.

The pair is sold in a wide spread of drops and widths, so there is a size to suit most windows, from a modest single window to a broad set of patio or bay windows. Charcoal is one of the easiest darks to place: it sits happily against warm neutrals, pale panelling and natural wood, and it reads as a grounding colour rather than a loud one. These work particularly well in a living room or bedroom where you want a room that feels a little more enclosed and calm, and the depth of the colour suits north-facing rooms that never get too much glare.

The header is a fixed row of eyelets, which slide straight onto a pole and drop into even, rounded pleats with no hooks or tape to fuss over. The curtains are fully lined with a room-darkening lining that cuts the light coming through the window and adds privacy after dark. Because a curtain hangs from a fixed eyelet drop, measure your pole height carefully before you choose a size. Pair them with the matching Galaxy cushion if you would like the same chenille elsewhere in the room.

How many curtains come in a pack?

Each Galaxy order is a pair, so you receive two curtain panels ready to hang together across a single window or door.

What is chenille and how does it feel?

Chenille is a woven fabric with a short, dense pile that stands up from the base cloth, giving it a soft, plush hand and a quiet sheen that shifts with the light.

Will these curtains block out light?

They are fully lined with a room-darkening lining, which cuts the light coming through the window and adds privacy, so they suit bedrooms and rooms you want to keep dim.

How do the eyelet headers hang?

The fixed eyelets slide directly onto a curtain pole and fall into even, rounded folds, so there are no hooks or heading tape to set up before hanging.

How do I choose the right size?

The pair is made in several widths and drops from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, so measure your pole width and the drop you want before choosing.
