Description
The Shiraz pencil pleat curtains carry an embroidered floral damask jacquard, its raised pattern picked out in gold across a deep emerald green ground with warm amber and bronze tones running through the design. The fabric is a chenille-style weave in 100% polyester, thick and closely woven, and each pair comes with two matching tiebacks finished with stainless steel rings. A jacquard is woven rather than printed, so the pattern is built into the cloth itself and holds its definition through years of drawing and hanging.
These curtains suit a traditional interior and sit comfortably against panelled walls, dark timber and brass fittings. The heavy weave gives them genuine weight, so they hang in full folds and help darken a room, which makes them a sensible choice for a bedroom or a living room where you want to shut out light in the evening. The pencil pleat header gathers the top into a neat run of upright folds and adapts to a range of window widths, though it does need a track or a pole with curtain hooks to hang, which are not supplied.
The pair is offered in three sizes, from 66 x 72cm up to 90 x 90cm per pair, so measure your window before choosing and remember the pole should extend a little either side. Polyester is hard-wearing and resists staining, and the manufacturer specifies dry clean only for this fabric, so keep that in mind rather than putting the curtains through a wash. The matching tiebacks let you sweep each curtain to the side by day, holding the fabric in a soft column against the wall.

Frequently Asked
Are these curtains sold as a pair?
Yes, each order is a pair of curtains, and both matching tiebacks with stainless steel rings are included so you can hold them open.
What header do these curtains have and what do I need to hang them?
They have a pencil pleat header that gathers into upright folds. You will need a curtain track or pole with hooks, as these are not supplied.
How do I clean these curtains?
The manufacturer specifies dry clean only for this polyester fabric, so take them to a professional cleaner rather than machine or hand washing.
Will these curtains help darken a room?
The chenille-style weave is thick and heavy, which helps block daylight and makes them well suited to a bedroom where you want a darker room.
Which size should I choose?
Sizes run from 66 x 72cm up to 90 x 90cm per pair. Measure your window width and drop before ordering, allowing the pole to overhang each side.
