Description
The Hebden is a pair of eyelet curtains made from 100% cotton on the face, printed with a soft woven-look stripe in blush and off-white. The stripe is printed rather than woven into the cloth, which keeps the face lightweight and lets it hang in an easy, relaxed drape rather than the stiffer fall of a heavier woven ticking. Cotton takes print well, so the colour sits clean and even against the pale ground, and the vertical run of the stripe draws the eye up and makes a window feel taller than it is. This SKU is a pair, and the range runs across several drop and width combinations from 117cm to 229cm wide and 137cm to 229cm long.
These suit a bedroom first, because they carry a blackout lining and hold daylight out until you choose to let it in, which matters for a room you sleep in or a nursery where an afternoon nap needs a dark room. The blush and cream stripe is quiet enough to sit with painted walls, natural wood and warm neutrals without competing for attention, and it works equally in a living room where you want a bit of pattern without a bold print. The eyelet header slides straight onto a pole, so there is no tape to gather and no hooks to thread.
The face is cotton and the lining is a separate polyester layer with an acrylic backing that does the blackout work, so the two jobs are split between two fabrics. Choose your size by the width of your pole rather than the window opening, and allow enough width across the pair for the curtains to gather properly when drawn back. The vertical stripe pairs neatly with plain bedding and a soft cushion in a deeper tone if you want to pick the warmth up elsewhere in the room.

Frequently Asked
Is this one curtain or a pair?
This is a pair of curtains, so you receive two panels in the box, one for each side of the pole or window.
Does the blackout lining really keep the light out?
The curtains carry a blackout lining with an acrylic backing, so they hold daylight at bay and keep a bedroom or nursery dark until you draw them back.
What is the stripe made of?
The face is 100% cotton with a printed woven-look stripe, so the pattern is printed onto the cloth rather than woven into it, which keeps the fabric light.
How do I choose the right size?
Sizes run from 117cm to 229cm wide and 137cm to 229cm long per pair, so measure your pole width and the drop you want from pole to floor before choosing.
How do these hang on the pole?
They have an eyelet header, so the metal rings slide straight onto a curtain pole with no tape to gather or hooks to thread first.
Will the cotton face and polyester lining behave differently?
The two layers are a cotton face and a polyester lining, so they are separate fabrics doing separate jobs, one for the look and one for the blackout.
