Heavy Chenille Plain Velvet Pencil Pleat Curtains - Navy

These are heavy chenille velvet curtains in a deep navy, sold as a pair and made with a pencil pleat header. The face cloth is a plain, densely woven chenille that catches the light unevenly, so the colour shifts from an almost-black shadow in the folds to a softer, washed blue where the pile faces the window. There is no pattern to line up and no print to fade, just a solid, textured velvet that reads as calm rather than showy. The fabric is 100% polyester, which is what makes a curtain this weight practical: it holds its drape, resists creasing and keeps its colour through repeated washing far better than most natural fibres of the same heft.

Curtains of this weight suit a room you want to feel settled and quiet, a living room or a bedroom where you draw them against a cold window or a bright morning. The navy sits happily with warm woods, cream and stone walls, and pairs naturally with the matching Heavy Chenille cushion if you want to carry the texture across the room. Pencil pleat is the most forgiving header to hang: the tape gathers to whatever width you set and works on both a track and a pole, so it fits most existing fittings without a rethink.

The curtains are lined, which adds body to the drape and helps them hang straight rather than clinging to the window. They come in a range of sizes, from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, measured as width by drop per pair, so you can match both the window width and the length of fall you want. When you choose, take the width of your track or pole rather than the window itself and allow for the gather. The Heavy Chenille range extends to a coordinating cushion for anyone building a scheme around the texture.

Do these curtains come as a pair?

Yes, each order is a pair of curtains, so you receive two panels to hang either side of your window or door.

Will a pencil pleat header work on my pole?

Pencil pleat tape gathers to your chosen width and works on both a curtain pole and a track, so it suits most existing fittings.

How do I choose the right size?

Measure the width of your track or pole rather than the window, and allow for the gather, then pick the drop that suits your fall.

What does the chenille velvet feel like?

The face is a soft, dense pile that catches the light, giving a textured plain finish with no pattern to match across the pair.

Are the curtains lined?

Yes, they are lined, which adds weight to the drape and helps the panels hang straight rather than clinging to the glass.
