What Types of Curtain Headings
We can advise you on the best heading for your style and your room.
Choose from our most popular:
PINCH PLEAT
This is our standard and most popular choice of heading style. This is a hand sewn double or triple pleat (usually 5” in depth) which works with all fabrics. The pleats can be made deeper for a more dramatic effect.
WAVE™
The latest in curtain design for the most modern and sophisticated look, the WAVE™ heading allows curtains to hang in a continuous wave. This is ideal for large, tall windows, particularly patios and bi-fold doors.
EYELET
Eyelet headings create a similar effect to the WAVE™ but are more casual in appearance. They fit directly onto the curtain pole and are available in a variety of colours to suit the pole.
How Long Does it Take?
Our curtains are hand sewn and this takes time. Our normal lead times are 6 weeks for curtains and 4 weeks for blinds. Fabric, wallpaper and curtain poles and tracks are usually delivered within 10 – 14 days.
Can I Customise My Curtains?
You can! Our team will be happy to advise on complementary products such as tiebacks, pelmets, poles, tracks, and motorisation.
