Plain Pattern Curtains:
These curtains are plain without any additional pattern, these are
usually drawn in a way to create a natural wave pattern and this is
the most popular pattern. To order plain curtains the size of the
curtains should be double the size of the window, this will help
draw the curtain to reflect the natural wave pattern. |
How to measure for Width
Measure the curtain track length from one end to other, this will be the width for your curtains.Example for Plain Top Curtains: If the track measures 74” it is better to order at least 50” X 2 Panels or 75” X 2 Panels for Best results. You must always order double width for Eyelet Top & Rouched Top curtains.
Example for Pleated Top Curtains: If the track measures 74” you must divide the width in 2 add 2” to each panel & then order, so you should order 38” X 2 Panels. (Each curtain Panel will be made using 78” wide fabric, so the un gathered width or width at bottom will be 78” for each panel).
For pencil pleated curtain you should can order more fullness &If you want more fullness, more deeper pleats, you can specially order for curtain to be made using more width of fabric.
f you have yet to fit the curtain rod / pole or track please bear in mind that the track or pole should ideally be positioned 6" (15cm) above the window and extend 4” to 6" (15cm) either side of the window (excluding finials).
* For poles - measure the width between the decorative finials
* For tracks - measure the full width of the track
* For overlapping tracks - measure the full width of both tracks and add them together
Measure the drop:
To measure all Pleated or Hook top curtains start measuring from the bottom of the curtain ring to the desired drop (Where you want the curtain to end). For Eyelets & rod top curtains measure from the top of the pole to the desired drop (Where you want the curtain to end). If you want the curtain to tail or sit of the floor you need to add 4cm to 10 cm (1 ½” to 4” inches) according to your choice.
If you need Bulky bottom or puddle bottom (Same as our featured product) you need to add 12” to 15” extra length & arrange the excess length to get the same look.
For rod top if you want frilly effect or ruffle at the top you need to add extra 3" to the length.
For curtain below the sill measure 15cm to 20cm (6 to 8 inches) below the sill. However if you are choosing this length to avoid a radiator please adjust this measurement to allow the curtains to stop a couple of centimeters above the radiator.
Since silk is made of natural fibers it should always be dry cleaned only, also avoid continues exposure to direct sunlight. All though full care is taken while shipping your order, there are possibilities of your curtains getting few crush marks or wrinkles, so we request you to please iron the curtains before hanging them.
As the process is fully manual (dew to over sight ) there may be very light marks (chalk marks) at the back or heading of the curtains, which is not a defect this will go off when scrubbed lightly.
* The total width of the track or pole or curtain rod should be divided in to 2 to make it a pair.
