Description
The Hebden pencil pleat curtains bring a soft vertical stripe to the window, its slim mineral-blue lines set against a pale ground. The face is woven from 100% cotton, which gives the fabric a light, natural handle and lets it gather into the easy folds a pencil pleat is designed to make. Every curtain here is sold as a pair, so the size you choose covers both sides of the window. Widths and drops run from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, giving you eight combinations to match to your window rather than one fixed panel.
A striped cotton curtain like this suits a relaxed living room, a bedroom or a dining space where you want a little pattern without a busy print taking over. The upright stripe draws the eye down and lends height to a window, and the muted blue reads as a calm neutral that sits happily against warm walls, natural wood and linen or velvet furnishings. Paired with a wooden pole, as shown, it settles into a quietly traditional room, though the stripe is plain enough to work in a simpler modern setting too.
The pencil pleat heading gathers onto standard curtain hooks and pole or track, and the tape lets you draw the fullness up evenly for a tailored top. The curtains are fully lined, which adds body to the drape, gives you more privacy and reduces the light coming through. Because the face is pure cotton, it responds well to a cool iron if it needs freshening after hanging. Wash to the care label, and hang while very slightly damp to let the folds fall out naturally.

Frequently Asked
Is the price for one curtain or a pair?
Each size you select is a pair of curtains, covering both sides of the window, so you do not need to order two.
What heading do these curtains have?
They have a pencil pleat heading, which gathers the fabric into neat upright folds and hangs from standard curtain hooks on a pole or track.
Are the curtains lined?
Yes, they are fully lined. The lining adds body to the drape, gives you more privacy and reduces the amount of light coming through.
What is the face fabric made from?
The face is 100% cotton, a natural woven fibre with a light handle that gathers well and can be pressed with a cool iron if needed.
How do I choose the right size?
Sizes are given as width by drop per pair, from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, so measure your pole width and desired drop before ordering.
