FAQs
What is included in the pack?
Each pack contains one pair of curtains.
What type of heading do these curtains have?
They feature an eyelet/ring top heading, designed to slide directly onto a curtain pole.
Can I machine wash these curtains?
No, these curtains are strictly 'Dry Clean Only'. Washing them in a machine may cause irreparable damage to the fabric and lining.
What is the material of the curtains?
The face material is a blend of 70% Polyester and 30% Cotton, and the lining is 85% Polyester and 15% Cotton.
Are these curtains blackout?
While the curtains are fully lined and will significantly reduce light penetration, they are not marketed as blackout curtains. They offer good light control and privacy.
What are the dimensions of the curtains?
Specific dimensions are not provided in the product description, but they are sold as a pair. Please refer to product packaging or retailer for exact size details.
What other colours are available for the Orleans Check design?
The Orleans Check design is also available in grey.
Troubleshooting
Curtains do not hang straight
Ensure the curtain pole is level and the eyelets are evenly spaced. Check for any wrinkles from packaging; these may fall out over time or with gentle steaming (refer to specific care advice if attempting).
Color fading
Avoid prolonged direct sunlight exposure. While the lining offers some protection, intense UV rays can fade any fabric over time. Consider using a pelmet or tie-backs to limit constant sun exposure.
Difficulty sliding on the pole
Ensure the curtain pole is smooth and free of burrs. Check that the eyelets are not snagged on anything and that the pole is not overloaded with too many curtains.
