The Ultimate Velvet Plain Lined Eyelet Curtains - Natural

Sold as a pair, The Ultimate Velvet eyelet curtains are made from a matt velvet face with a room-darkening lining, both polyester. The finish is plain rather than patterned, so the interest comes from the pile itself: velvet catches light differently as it moves, which is why the fabric reads as a warm natural beige that shifts subtly across each fold. The eyelet header sits along the top on metal rings, ready to thread straight onto a pole. This size measures 229cm wide by 137cm drop per pair, and the range runs from a shorter 117cm width up to the widest 229cm across several drops, so there is a size to suit most standard windows.

These suit a living room or bedroom where you want the window dressed properly and the light under control. The room-darkening lining is the reason to choose them: it blocks a good deal of daylight and adds privacy after dark, which makes them a sensible pick for a bedroom, a snug, or any room that faces a street lamp. The plain natural shade is easy to live with and sits happily against warm neutral walls, wood furniture and softer furnishings, without fighting anything else in the room.

The velvet gives a soft, fluid drape that hangs in deep folds rather than standing stiff, so the curtains fall cleanly from the eyelets to the floor. Being fully polyester, both the face and the lining are hard-wearing and hold their shape well over time. Do check your pole diameter against the eyelet size before ordering, and measure your window width against the range so you buy enough fabric to gather properly. If you like the plain velvet look, the range is offered across a spread of widths and drops in this natural shade.

Are these curtains sold as a pair?

Yes, each order is a pair of curtains, so you receive two panels to dress both sides of your window.

How much light do they block?

They have a room-darkening lining that blocks a good deal of daylight and adds privacy, though it is not the same as full blackout.

Will they fit my curtain pole?

They use an eyelet header that threads onto a pole, so check your pole diameter passes through the eyelet rings before ordering.

What size should I choose?

The range runs from 117cm to 229cm wide across several drops, so measure your window width and desired drop and pick the closest fit above it.

What does the velvet feel like?

It is a soft matt velvet with a fluid drape, so it hangs in deep folds and adds warmth and texture rather than a shiny sheen.
