Pencil Pleat Curtains
Pencil pleat curtains are so called because of their fabric folds, which are gathered together near the header to create what looks like a row of pencils. They have an understated, modern design that can give a refreshing new look to many interiors.
They can be used on tracks or poles, under pelmets and valances or on their own.
Our made-to-measure pencil pleat curtains are suitable for most styles of fabric and for all curtain widths and room heights.
Double Pleat Curtains
Also known as double pinch pleat curtains, a double pleat header is a good choice for patterned fabrics as less of the pattern is gathered into the fold. Pinch pleats give a more formal look and the curtains tend to hang beautifully in uniform folds.
This heading looks best when hung beneath a curtain pole, however, can be used on a track.
Our made-to-measure double pinch pleat curtains in Cheshire work well for all types of windows and looks great in drawing rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and kitchens.
Triple Pleat Curtains
Triple pinch pleat curtains have small groups of pleats separated by flat sections of fabric, pinch pleat curtain hooks are used at each pleat, so the curtains are suspended by the pleats with flat fabric between.
Very well suited to both modern and traditional homes, our made-to-measure triple pleat curtains are suitable for all curtain widths and room heights and most fabrics. This heading looks best when hung beneath a curtain pole, however it can also be used on a track.
Wave Curtains
As an alternative to traditional curtain headings, the wave system offers a more contemporary, neat and stylish curtain presentation. The finished appearance of wave curtains is similar to that of eyelet curtains but the fabric hangs directly below the track in a neat and uniform style.
The ‘wave’ effect is created through combining a specially designed heading tape and wave glider-cord to get a soft and simple continuous wave effect. When opened the curtains stack back neatly and straight and when closed the fabric hangs in a smooth continuous wave effect.
Our made-to-measure wave curtains in Cheshire look great on large, full height windows, especially when using one of the many room high fabrics that we offer.
Eyelet Curtains
Our bespoke eyelet curtains create a simple and modern wave effect and are used with curtain poles (not suitable for curtain tracks). Different sizes and colours of eyelets are available to fit 28mm, 35mm and 50mm curtain poles in a variety of colours.
The eyelet sizes we offer for our made-to-measure curtains have been optimised for these three main diameters of pole and are sized to enhance the ease of movement when opening and closing the curtains.
Goblet Curtains
Our made-to-measure goblet pleat curtains are similar in their makeup to pinch pleat curtains but create a more formal traditional look. Small goblet shaped sections of fabrics are formed in the curtain heading when the fabric is gathered and pleated, these are then separated by flat sections of fabric.
Pinch pleat curtain hooks are used at each goblet, so the curtains are suspended by the goblets with flat fabric between.
This heading looks best when hung beneath a curtain pole, however it can be used on a track also.
