Description

The Ultimate Velvet is a plain velvet curtain with a soft matt finish and a full, fluid drape. It is a blackout curtain, which means the fabric is built to block daylight rather than simply filter it, giving you a dark, private room whatever the hour. The curtains hang on a pencil pleat header, the tape-and-cord heading that gathers the fabric into neat vertical folds and lets you draw the top to the width you need. They come as a pair, and are available across a range of sizes from 117cm wide by 137cm drop up to 229cm wide by 229cm drop, so you can match the width of your window and the length of your wall.

Blackout velvet earns its place in a bedroom, where a genuinely dark room helps sleep, and in a living room or study used for watching a screen. The mink tone reads as a warm chestnut brown in the room, and it sits comfortably against soft pinks, plums and natural wood, as the photographs show it doing beside a berry sofa and a pale wall. The weight of the fabric also helps with draughts at the window and softens the sound of a busy room, so it does more than one job at a time.

The fabric is polyester with a polyurethane blackout layer, and the pile gives velvet its depth and its slight sheen where the light catches the folds. The pencil pleat header means you gather the curtains up when you hang them, so buy a width comfortably wider than your window to keep the folds generous rather than flat. Because the header suits most standard tracks and poles, they are straightforward to hang. Pair them with a plain pole and simple tie-backs, or let them fall full to the floor as they do here.

Frequently Asked

Do these curtains actually block out the light?

Yes, the fabric is a 100% blackout construction with a polyurethane backing, so it blocks daylight rather than filtering it, giving a dark, private room.

Are both curtains included, or just one?

Each size is sold as a pair, so you receive two curtains, one for each side of your window, in the width and drop you select.

What size should I buy for my window?

Choose a total width comfortably wider than your window so the pencil pleat gathers into full folds, and a drop that reaches your sill or the floor.

What is a pencil pleat header?

It is a tape-and-cord heading sewn into the top that gathers the fabric into neat upright folds, and it suits most standard curtain tracks and poles.

What does the velvet feel like?

It has a soft matt pile that gives the curtains their depth and a gentle sheen where light catches the folds, adding warmth and texture to a room.

Is the mink colour a brown?

In the room the mink tone reads as a warm chestnut brown, sitting well with soft pinks, plums and natural wood tones.
