FAQs

Can I wash these curtains in a standard washing machine?

Yes, they are fully machine washable, though a gentle cycle is recommended to preserve the texture.

Do these curtains come as a pair?

Yes, The Very Collection Canterbury curtains are provided as a set.

Do I need a special pole for eyelet curtains?

No, they fit most standard circular curtain poles.

Are these curtains effective against noise?

While primarily for light and thermal control, the dense chenille fabric offers slight sound-dampening benefits compared to thinner fabrics.

Will the blackout coating peel over time?

The curtains are built for durability, but washing on high heat or using harsh chemicals should be avoided to protect the backing.

Troubleshooting

Curtains not sliding smoothly on the pole

Check that the pole is clean and free of debris. Ensure the pole diameter matches the eyelet size and is not bowing under the weight.

Visible light gaps at the top

Position the eyelets so the fabric folds back toward the window wall, or install the curtain pole slightly higher above the window frame.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent light-blocking capabilities for better sleep
  • Sophisticated, soft-touch chenille texture
  • Thermal insulation helps reduce energy waste
  • Simple eyelet mounting system for quick setup
  • Machine washable for easy maintenance

Cons

  • Requires a sturdy pole due to the weight of the fabric
  • Dry-cleaning may be preferred to preserve fabric pile texture
  • Limited to eyelet header style only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: simply thread the metallic eyelets directly onto your existing curtain pole. Ensure your pole is compatible with the eyelet diameter and capable of supporting the weight of the panels. To care for your curtains, machine wash on a gentle cycle. For best results and to maintain the integrity of the chenille pile, avoid harsh detergents and heavy agitation. Always check the care label on your specific pair for temperature recommendations. If wrinkles occur after washing, a light steam from a distance can help restore the fabric's drape without damaging the blackout coating.
