Heavy Chenille Velvet Lined Eyelet Curtains - Nutmeg

These are heavy chenille velvet eyelet curtains, sold as a pair, in a warm nutmeg brown. The fabric is a plain velvet chenille woven from 100% polyester, which is what gives the cloth its close, even pile and its soft handle. There is no pattern to line up here; the interest is all in the way the pile catches and holds the light, reading a little darker in the folds and a little warmer where the light falls across it. They come in a range of drops and widths, from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, so there is a size for most standard windows as well as taller ones.

Velvet chenille has real weight and body, which is why these hang in deep, straight folds rather than thin ones. That weight makes them a good fit for a living room or a bedroom where you want the window to feel dressed and the room to feel settled in the evening. The nutmeg tone sits comfortably against warm neutral walls and natural textures such as jute, rattan and pale wood, and it works just as well against a cooler grey scheme where it adds warmth. Because they are lined, they also help hold the temperature of a room.

The heading is a row of metal eyelets, so they thread straight onto a pole and pull open and closed easily, falling into even pleats without needing hooks or tape. They are lined, which adds to the drape and the finished look at the back. As polyester, the cloth is durable and holds its shape well in daily use. To dress them after hanging, run your hand down each fold to settle the pleats. A matching Heavy Chenille cushion is part of the same range if you want to carry the fabric through into the seating.
