Description
The Heath eyelet curtains are made from an enzyme-washed velvet, a process that softens the pile and gives the cloth its lived-in hand before it ever reaches your window. A jacquard weave runs through the face, adding a low, textured grain you can see close up in the folds rather than a pattern that competes for attention. This is a pair of fully lined curtains, sold as two panels, in a deep espresso brown. They come across a range of drops and widths, from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, so you can match the pair to the window you are dressing.
Brown at this depth suits a room built on warm neutrals and natural wood, and the styling here shows exactly that: pale walls, an oak chair, a linen cushion. In a living room the weight of the velvet closes down a large window in the evening and settles it against the wall by day. Because the header is eyelet, the panels hang in even, rounded pleats straight off the pole, which reads as calm and considered rather than fussy. The fluid drape means they pool gently at the floor if you order a generous drop.
The eyelet header threads straight onto a pole with no hooks or tape to set up, so hanging is a matter of feeding the pole through the rings. The curtains are fully lined, which adds body to the hang and helps the panels sit heavily rather than billowing. Velvet holds colour well and the washed finish is forgiving of everyday creasing. Measure your pole width and your desired drop before choosing a size, since a pair should be fuller than the window to gather properly when drawn.

Frequently Asked
Do these curtains come as a pair?
Yes, each order is a pair of two panels, so you receive both sides to dress a single window from one purchase.
How do the eyelet curtains hang?
The eyelet header threads directly onto a curtain pole, forming even rounded pleats with no hooks or heading tape required.
What is enzyme-washed velvet?
It is a velvet treated in a wash that softens the pile before sale, giving the cloth a relaxed, tactile hand from the start.
Are the curtains lined?
Yes, both panels are fully lined, which adds weight to the drape and helps them hang heavily rather than billow.
Which size should I choose?
Measure your pole width and the drop you want, then pick a pair fuller than the window so it gathers well when drawn.
