Heavy Chenille Velvet Lined Eyelet Curtains - Olive

These are our Heavy Chenille eyelet curtains in olive, a plain chenille velvet made from 100% polyester. The weight is the point here: a dense, softly napped cloth that hangs in deep, weighty folds rather than fluttering, so a window dressed in these reads as calm and substantial. The close-up swatch shows the chenille texture clearly, a fine woven ground with a soft surface pile that catches the light differently as it falls, giving the flat olive a gentle depth without any pattern to distract from it. The curtains come with metal eyelet rings punched into the heading, which slide straight onto a pole for hanging.

Olive is an easy green to live with, warm and muted rather than sharp, and it settles happily against neutral walls, natural wood and pale upholstery. That makes these a good fit for a living room or a bedroom where you want a bit of colour and cover without committing to a busy print. The eyelet heading gives an even, regular wave along the pole, which suits a modern, relaxed room, and the depth of the folds means the curtains still look full when drawn back to the sides of the window.

Each curtain in the pair is lined, which adds body, helps the fabric drape and gives you more privacy and light reduction than an unlined panel would. Polyester is hard-wearing and holds its colour well, and it resists creasing, so the curtains keep their shape through daily opening and closing. This size is a pair measuring 229cm wide by 137cm drop, and the range runs through several widths and drops so you can match your window and pole. To finish the look, we also sell a matching Heavy Chenille cushion in the same fabric.

What does the eyelet heading need to hang?

The rings slide directly onto a curtain pole, so you will need a pole rather than a track. The rings give an even, wave-like fold along the top.

Is this one curtain or a pair?

Each size is sold as a pair, so you receive two panels to cover both sides of the window from a single order.

Are the curtains lined?

Yes, each panel is lined. The lining adds weight so the fabric drapes well and gives you more privacy and light reduction than an unlined curtain.

What does the chenille velvet feel like?

It is a heavy, soft-napped cloth with a gentle sheen that shifts as it catches the light, giving the plain olive a subtle depth without any pattern.

How do I choose the right size?

The first figure is the width per pair and the second is the drop, so measure your pole width and the length you want from pole to sill or floor.

Is polyester a practical choice for curtains?

Polyester is durable, holds its colour and resists creasing, so it keeps its shape through daily opening and closing with little fuss.
