Description
Our Heath curtains are made from an enzyme-washed velvet, a finish that softens the pile and gives the cloth its relaxed, lived-in handle rather than the crisp face of a standard velvet. A jacquard weave runs through the fabric, adding a quiet, close texture you can see in the folds without any pattern to draw the eye. The result is a plain espresso brown that reads as deep and warm across a whole drop, with the weave catching the light differently as the fabric moves. Each SKU is a pair of curtains with a pencil pleat header, and the range runs from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm so you can match the width to your window and the length to your drop.
These sit best in calm, considered rooms where you want the window to feel dressed rather than busy: a living room, a bedroom, a study. The dark brown grounds a scheme of warm neutrals and natural wood, and the fluid drape means the fabric gathers into soft, full folds when drawn back. Because a curtain SKU here is a pair, order one size to cover the whole window and check the finished width against your track or pole allowing for the gather. The 137cm and 183cm drops suit standard windows; the 229cm drop is for tall windows or a floor-length finish that pools slightly at the base.
The curtains are fully lined, which gives them body, helps them hang straight and adds a measure of insulation and light reduction at the glass. The pencil pleat header gathers onto a standard tape and works with both a track and a pole with rings. Polyester is a hard-wearing, easy-care fibre that resists creasing and holds its shape between washes, which makes it a practical choice for curtains that see daily handling. Style them simply against a plain wall so the washed texture does the work, and let the fullness of the pair fall to the floor.

Frequently Asked
Is one price for a single curtain or a pair?
Each size you order is a pair of curtains, so a single purchase covers both sides of the window at the width stated.
What is a pencil pleat header and how does it hang?
A pencil pleat gathers the top of the curtain into narrow, upright folds on a standard tape, and it works with both a curtain track and a pole with rings.
What does enzyme-washed velvet feel like?
The wash softens the pile so the fabric has a relaxed, tactile handle, with a subtle jacquard weave adding close texture rather than any printed pattern.
Are these curtains lined?
Yes, they are fully lined, which gives the fabric body, helps it hang straight and adds some insulation and light reduction at the window.
Which size should I choose for my window?
Choose a pair width wider than your window to allow for gather, and pick the drop that reaches your sill or the floor, from 137cm up to 229cm.
How does polyester behave over time?
Polyester is hard-wearing and resists creasing, so the curtains hold their shape well between washes and cope with daily opening and closing.
