FAQs
What material are the Fusion Sorbonne Eyelet Curtains made from?
These curtains are crafted from 100% premium cotton fabric, providing a soft and luxurious feel.
How do I clean my eyelet curtains?
The Fusion Sorbonne Eyelet Curtains are 'Dry Clean Only' to maintain their quality, color, and shape. Please do not machine wash, tumble dry, or bleach them.
Are these curtains blackout?
No, these curtains are fully lined to softly filter light and enhance privacy, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. They are not designed to be blackout curtains.
Are the curtains sold individually or as a pair?
The Fusion Sorbonne Eyelet Curtains are sold as a pair. The sizes listed in the description refer to the dimensions of each individual curtain panel.
What type of curtain pole is suitable for these curtains?
These curtains feature an eyelet heading and require a curtain pole for hanging. The brushed steel eyelets have a 40mm diameter, making them compatible with most standard curtain poles.
What is the diameter of the eyelet rings?
The brushed steel eyelet rings on these curtains have a diameter of 40mm.
What does 'fully lined' mean for these curtains?
'Fully lined' means that an additional layer of fabric is sewn to the back of the main curtain fabric. This enhances privacy, helps to softly filter light, and can offer some thermal insulation.
Troubleshooting
Curtains are not hanging evenly or look creased.
After hanging, gently adjust the fabric between each eyelet to ensure even distribution and uniform folds. For persistent creases from packaging, a professional dry cleaner may be able to gently steam them, as ironing is not recommended for home care.
Curtains are difficult to slide along the pole.
Check that your curtain pole's diameter is appropriate for the 40mm eyelet rings. Ensure the pole is clean and free of obstructions. A small amount of silicone spray on the top of the pole (away from the fabric) can sometimes aid smooth movement, but use cautiously.
Curtains do not adequately cover the window or let in too much light from the sides.
Verify that you have selected the correct curtain width for your window. Curtains should typically be 1.5 to 2 times the width of your window or curtain pole for a good gather. If light leaks around the edges, consider extending your curtain pole slightly beyond the window frame to allow the curtains to stack back fully.
The eyelets seem to be catching on the pole.
Inspect the eyelets for any manufacturing imperfections or rough edges. If an eyelet is damaged, contact customer support. Also, ensure the pole is smooth and free from burrs or rough spots that could impede movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
- Unpack Curtains: Carefully remove the curtains from their packaging. Lay them flat or hang them briefly to allow any creases from packaging to relax.
- Install Curtain Pole: Ensure you have a curtain pole securely installed above your window. The recommended pole diameter for these curtains is compatible with the 40mm eyelet rings. Refer to the size chart for appropriate pole lengths for your chosen curtain width.
- Thread Curtains: Begin by threading the first eyelet of one curtain panel onto the curtain pole. Continue threading alternate eyelets over and under the pole until the entire panel is on the pole. Repeat for the second panel.
- Arrange Folds: Once both panels are on the pole, gently adjust the fabric between the eyelets to create even, elegant folds across the width of your window. The eyelet design naturally encourages neat pleats.
Compatibility
- Curtain Poles: These eyelet curtains are designed exclusively for use with curtain poles. They are not suitable for curtain tracks or rods that require hooks or rings.
- Pole Diameter: The brushed steel eyelet rings have a 40mm diameter, making them compatible with most standard curtain poles. Ensure your pole is not excessively thick to allow for smooth movement.
- Pole Length: Select a curtain pole length that is appropriate for the width of your window and the chosen curtain size. The product description provides guidance on recommended pole lengths for each curtain width (e.g., W46in curtains fit poles 90-160cm).
Care Instructions
- Dry Clean Only: To maintain the quality, color, and integrity of the 100% cotton fabric and lining, these curtains must be dry cleaned only. Do not machine wash, hand wash, tumble dry, iron at high temperatures, or bleach, as this could damage the fabric and cause shrinkage or color fading.
- Regular Dusting: Periodically dust the curtains with a soft brush or vacuum with an upholstery attachment to remove surface dust and keep them looking fresh.
