Description
Our Heath curtains are made from an enzyme-washed velvet, a finish that softens the pile and gives the cloth a broken-in, relaxed hand rather than the crisp sheen of a formal velvet. Woven with a subtle jacquard pattern, the surface carries a fine, rippling texture that catches the light gently across the drop. They are sold as a pair, fully lined, and finished with an eyelet header that threads straight onto a pole. The muted green you see here is what the supplier calls Eucalyptus, a soft, grey-leaning olive that reads warm in lamplight and cooler by day.
Eyelet curtains suit poles rather than tracks, so check you are hanging from a pole before you choose these. The weight and lining make them a natural fit for a living room or a bedroom, where a lined curtain does real work at the window: it adds body to the drape, softens sound, and cuts the draught that a single layer of fabric lets through. The eucalyptus tone sits easily with warm neutrals, wood furniture and earthy accents, and works as well against a pale wall as a deeper one. The eyelet header falls into even, rounded folds, which is why these look considered even left simply drawn back.
They come in a spread of drops and widths, so measure your pole width and your desired finished length before selecting a size. Each curtain in the pair carries the eyelet header and the full lining. The velvet responds well to being drawn and dressed by hand once hung, and settles into its folds over the first few days. If you are building a calm, layered scheme, they pair with a textured cushion or a throw in a related tone to echo the softness of the cloth. We would suggest hanging them a little above the window and letting them break gently at the floor for the fullest drape.

Frequently Asked
Do these curtains come as a pair?
Yes, each purchase is a pair of curtains, so you receive two panels to dress both sides of the window.
Will these fit a curtain pole or a track?
They have an eyelet header, which is designed to thread directly onto a curtain pole rather than a track, so check you are hanging from a pole.
What does enzyme-washed velvet feel like?
The enzyme wash softens the pile so the velvet has a relaxed, broken-in hand rather than a stiff, formal sheen, with a subtle jacquard texture across the surface.
Are they lined?
Yes, they are fully lined, which adds body to the drape, helps the folds hang evenly and gives more substance at the window than a single unlined layer.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure your pole width and the finished drop you want from the pole to where the hem should fall, then pick the closest size in the range.
What colour is Eucalyptus?
It is a soft, grey-leaning olive green that looks warmer under lamplight and a little cooler in daylight, sitting well with wood and warm neutrals.
