What motif is on this pair?
Diamonds and florals in a deeper red are worked across the panel in a geometric arrangement. The repeat is medium in scale and covers the curtain, giving it an ordered, structured look rather than a free-flowing one, with each diamond holding the florals in place.
How does the tone-on-tone work look up close and from afar?
From a distance the curtains read as a rich red with texture. As you come closer, the diamond-and-floral pattern in deep red becomes clear, along with the stitched edges of each shape. That tone-on-tone approach keeps a strong colour from feeling busy.
Which rooms can carry a red curtain?
Red works well as the main accent in a living or dining room, against white, cream or pale walls and with dark wood or brass. In a bedroom it adds warmth. Keep cushions and rugs in quieter or matching tones so the curtains stay the focus of the room.
What fabric is it?
The curtains are cotton, with applique shapes stitched on to form the pattern. Applique is a layered technique, so the diamonds and florals add texture to the surface as well as colour, which gives the red its depth.
Is it a single curtain or a pair?
It is a set of two curtains. Each measures 44 x 84 inches, or about 3.5 x 7 feet, so you can hang one on each side of a window or door, or both together across one opening.
Will both curtains be exactly the same?
Both are made to the same design, but since each is made by hand, there can be minor irregularities in the shapes and stitching. Colour hues may also look slightly different from your screen. These small variations are the nature of handcrafted work.
