Additional information
The measurement applies to each individual curtain length.
The curtains are sold in pairs. The sizes stated refer to each single curtain. For the total width, double the width of a single curtain.
Since the fabric will shrink when washing it is a good idea to wash the curtains prior to cutting/hemming.
You can use SY iron-on hemming strip to shorten the curtains without sewing.
Assembly and installation
16 gliders and hooks are usually recommended for each curtain with a width of 145 cm. You can increase or decrease the number depending on whether you want narrower or fuller folds in the pleats.
The 300 cm length allows you to hang the curtain at ceiling height to create a sophisticated, high-ceiling look; or you can hang the curtain above the window and let it puddle on the floor.
The cotton/ramie blend creates a distinct character and texture. The fabric is durable, keeps its shape and is wrinkle-resistant.
Curtains with heading tape allow you to hang the curtain directly on the curtain rod using the rod pocket or tabs. You can also hinge the curtain onto a track rail using gliders and hooks.
Using gliders and hooks usually creates a more formal and dressed-up feel, where hardware is not visible.
The heading tape makes it easy for you to create pleats using RIKTIG curtain hooks.
Designer thoughts
Designer Emma Prowse
“The pattern for VILDPERSILJA curtain and cushion cover is one that had been simmering in my mind for a while. It’s inspired by the old houses that line the streets of Visby, Gotland where I live, with charming walled gardens full of roses, fruit trees, hollyhocks, ivy, daisies, marigolds, figs and walnut trees. Whether you are looking to add life and a splash of colour to a neutral-toned space or to make your urban flat cosier – this versatile pattern connects you to nature.”
Function/solution
The fabric dims the daylight
The fabric dims the daylight entering the room when it is brighter outside, and reduces glare. It gives you a comfortable sense of privacy because people cannot see in during the daytime. At night, when the room is lit, it is possible to perceive shapes and silhouettes from outside.
Material
Ramie and cotton
Ramie is one of the oldest crops used for fabric production, having been used by ancient civilizations in Asia and Egypt for thousands of years. It is known for its great ability to hold its shape. Ramie looks like linen and has a silky sheen. Blended with cotton, you get vivid colours and a greater lustre.
