FAQ
WHAT MEASUREMENTS ARE THE SINGLE AND DOUBLE WIDTH CURTAIN PANELS?
Our curtains are available in single and double-width panels (140cm and 280cm).
HOW MANY PANELS PER WINDOW?
We suggest minimum 2 panels per window depending on the width of the window.
HOW DO I MEASURE LENGTH FOR THE CURTAINS?
Measuring the length for your curtains is easily done. To get your curtain’s unique drop dimensions, the ceiling is the reference point – not the window. Hang your curtains as close to the ceiling as possible to give the room a grand feeling, and let them fall all the way down to the floor.
To choose the right length of the curtains measure like this:
TRACK ATTACHED TO CEILING
Measure distance from the floor up to the ceiling + 2 cm = Curtain panel length
TRACK ATTACHED TO WALL
Measure distance from floor to upper edge of track + 2 cm = Curtain panel length
ROD ATTACHED TO WALL WITH RINGS AND HOOKS
Measure distance from floor to the underside of the ring + 2 cm = Length of your panel
ROD ATTACHED TO WALL
Measure distance from floor to upper edge of rod + 2 cm = Curtain panel length
HOW DO I MEASURE WIDTH FOR THE CURTAINS?
Each curtain panel is 280 cm without any hooks in.
A panel with the hooks in, covers up to 152 cm of the window when opened and approximately 65 cm when pushed back. We recommend a minimum two panels per window; one on each side.
Amplify your space. The track or rod should be longer than the width of your window. This is to maximize the light from the window, and make your window appear bigger. We recommend the rod to extend at least 20 - 50cm on each side of the window. We recommend the track to extend at least 15 - 50cm on each side of the window.
For a luxurious look, we recommend the track or rod to extend 50 cm on each side of the window.
Example:
If your window is 100cm you’ll need a 200cm rod or track.
Sumptuous pleats. Our panels are made from double width fabric and are pleated with a four- finger hook to create a pinch pleat, giving the curtains a rich and wonderfully flowing look. So that even when closed, there is fullness to them.
PREFERRED LENGTH OF THE PANELS?
Measuring the length of your curtains is easily done. To get your curtain’s unique drop dimensions, the ceiling is the reference point – not the window. Hang your curtains as close to the ceiling as possible to give the room a grand feeling, and let them fall all the way down to the floor. When in doubt, err on the side of longer rather than shorter. We think a generous amount of fabric adds a luxurious touch to any room.
HOW MUCH DOES A PANEL COVER?
Each curtain panel is 280 cm without the hooks in. A panel with the hooks in, covers up to 152 cm of the window when open and approximately 65 cm when pushed back.
