Rustic Curtains

The pole is part of the curtain

The fabric hangs on rings or eyelets from a decorative pole above the window, and the pole and its finials become part of the room. The photographs below are rustic curtains we have fitted.

What it brings to a room

The pole is part of the curtain

A rustic curtain is the classic hang: the fabric runs on rings or eyelets along a wooden or metal pole fixed above the window. Where a track hides in the ceiling, a rustic pole stays in view, and with its finials and its colour it becomes part of the room. That is why we choose the pole's material, thickness and tone together with the fabric.

Details and FAQs

Rooms it suits

Rustic curtains belong as much in plain, modern homes as in classic drawing rooms. A wooden pole brings warmth and a natural feel; a metal one draws a finer, more contemporary line. Hung from rings, the fabric falls in soft, loose waves; with eyelets it settles into regular, deep folds. If you want both a sheer and a drape, a double pole lets you open and close each layer on its own.

The right measure

A rustic pole should run past the window on both sides, so that when the curtain is open the fabric gathers beside the glass rather than in front of it and the light is not cut. Height matters too: a pole set a little above the window makes the ceiling look higher. We settle these measurements in your room, with the window's aspect and the daylight in front of us.

Choosing finials

A pole takes its character from its finials. A gilded leaf finial suits a classic living room and a plain ribbed end a modern one, while a crystal or coloured finial becomes a small accent at the window. We choose the finials, the colour of the pole and the rings together with the fabric and the metals in the room.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a rustic pole and a track?

On a rustic pole the fabric moves on rings or eyelets along a decorative pole in plain view. With a track, the carrier hides in the ceiling or a curtain recess and the curtain glides more lightly. For a classic, warm look we suggest a rustic pole; for a plain, invisible carrier, a track.

Can a sheer and a drape share a rustic pole?

For two layers we use a double pole: the sheer hangs on the pole nearer the glass and the drape on a second pole in front of it. That way you can draw only the sheer by day and the drape in the evening.

Should I choose rings or eyelets?

With rings the fabric falls more freely, in soft waves; with eyelets the folds are regular and deep. We weigh both with samples, according to the weight of the fabric and the character of the room.

Can a rustic pole be fixed to the ceiling?

Yes. If there is no wall above the window to carry the pole, or you want the curtain to fall from the ceiling, we hang the pole on ceiling brackets. We decide together which suits when we measure, after looking at the wall and the ceiling.

Does a rustic curtain work at a kitchen window?

It does. In a kitchen we can thread a short, gathered curtain onto a slim wooden or metal pole; it frames the window without covering the glass and stays clear of the worktop. For windows very close to the hob we weigh the fabric and the curtain's position together.

How long does a rustic curtain take?

Once the measure is taken and the fabric chosen, orders are ready within 3–8 working days. Our own team fits the pole and hangs the curtain.
