Manhattan Velvet Fully Lined Eyelet Curtains - Silver

The Manhattan is a fully lined eyelet curtain in a soft silver grey, woven from cut velvet with a raised geometric pattern. The face is textured with irregular block shapes that catch the light differently across the drop, so the fabric reads as quietly patterned rather than flat. Sold as a pair, these curtains come in a range of sizes running from 117 x 137cm up to 229 x 229cm, so you can match the width to your window and the drop to your rod height. Both the face and the lining are polyester, which holds its shape, resists creasing and keeps its colour through repeated use.

This is a curtain for a living room, bedroom or dining room where you want a little weight at the window without a heavy colour. The pale silver grey sits easily against neutral walls, wood floors and grey or taupe upholstery, and the low-contrast pattern means it works whether your room is bright and modern or more traditional. Because it is fully lined, it adds privacy and cuts down the light coming through, which makes it a sensible choice for a room that faces the street or a bedroom where you want the mornings darker.

The eyelet heading slides straight onto a pole and falls into even folds, so hanging is quick and the drape stays neat. Being a fully lined pair, the curtains hang with more body than an unlined panel and sit better against the window. Polyester is easy to live with: it washes and dries without much fuss and needs little attention between washes. Measure your pole width and your desired drop before choosing a size, since a curtain wants to be wider than the window it covers to gather properly.

Do these curtains come as a pair?

Yes, each size is sold as a pair of curtains, so you receive two panels ready to hang together across your window.

What size should I choose for my window?

Choose a pair wider than your window so the fabric can gather into folds, and match the drop to the distance from your pole to where you want the hem to fall.

Will the lining help with light and privacy?

Yes, the curtains are fully lined, which adds privacy and reduces the amount of daylight coming through, useful for street-facing rooms and bedrooms.

How do I hang eyelet curtains?

The eyelet heading threads directly onto a curtain pole, no hooks or tape needed, and the rings slide along the pole so the fabric drapes into even folds.

What is the fabric made from?

Both the face and the lining are polyester, a hard-wearing fibre that holds its shape well, resists creasing and keeps its colour through everyday use.

Is the pattern printed or woven?

The geometric pattern is a texture in the cut velvet itself rather than a print, so it is raised on the surface and reads through the light.
