Product Information

Full details

The Very Collection Canterbury Chenille Blackout Eyelet Curtains are an ideal choice for homeowners seeking to combine sophisticated aesthetics with functional light management. These heavy-textured curtains provide excellent blackout capabilities and thermal insulation, making them perfect for bedrooms and nurseries where sleep quality and temperature control are priorities. While they excel at darkening rooms and maintaining comfort, their heavy fabric density may require a sturdy, properly secured curtain pole to handle the weight effectively.

FAQs

Can I tumble dry these curtains?

It is recommended to air dry these curtains. Tumble drying may damage the blackout coating on the reverse side.

Are these curtains sold as a pair?

Yes, The Very Collection Canterbury curtains are typically sold as a pair, but please verify the specific package contents upon purchase.

Will these fit a heavy-duty bay window pole?

Yes, provided the pole has a standard diameter and the brackets allow for the movement of eyelet curtains around the corners.

Do these curtains block sound as well as light?

While not marketed as acoustic curtains, the dense chenille fabric provides a minor level of sound dampening compared to thinner, non-lined fabrics.

Are the eyelets rust-proof?

The eyelets are made of durable metal, but they should be kept dry. Avoid leaving them wet for extended periods after washing.

How do I know what size to buy?

Measure your window width and add at least 50% for proper gathering, or double the width for a fuller, more luxurious look.

Troubleshooting

Curtains appear wrinkled after taking them out of the package.

Hang the curtains on the pole and allow them to drape for 24-48 hours; most creases will drop out naturally. For stubborn wrinkles, use a cool steam iron on the reverse fabric side only.

Curtain pole is sagging in the middle.

The fabric is heavy; ensure you have a support bracket in the center of the pole or upgrade to a thicker diameter pole for better rigidity.

Light is leaking through the top of the curtains.

This is common with eyelet curtains. Ensure the pole is installed as close to the window frame as possible and use 'curtain return' brackets if available to bring the pole closer to the wall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation

  1. Measure your curtain pole to ensure it is rated for the weight of heavy chenille fabric.
  2. Slide the curtain pole through the metal eyelets, alternating the fold direction for a uniform 'S' shape fold.
  3. Secure the pole to the brackets and test that the curtains glide smoothly.

Compatibility

These curtains are designed for use with standard circular curtain poles. They are not compatible with traditional track-and-hook systems unless modified with adapter rings.

Care Instructions

To clean, remove from the pole and wash according to the label instructions. Use a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach to preserve the colour. Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the blackout lining, though they can be machine washed as needed.
