Curtains
Silver curtains, made to measure
Every pair on this page is cut and sewn to the window it is going on — the drop measured from your pole, the width worked out from the heading you pick, and the lining chosen for what the room actually needs. Linens, cottons and velvets, hand-finished in Britain, then hung and dressed by the fitter who brought them.

Start with the heading
Four ways a curtain can hang
The heading changes how much wall the curtains stack back onto, how deep the folds sit and, quite often, the price. Pick a style to filter the ranges below.
Eyelet
Metal rings run straight onto the pole, so the fabric falls in deep, even waves and draws with one pull.
Pencil pleat
A gathered tape you can tighten to suit the window. The one heading that works on a pole or a track.
Pinch pleat
Pleats hand-formed in groups and stitched to hold. The most tailored option, and the one that stacks tightest.
Wave
A continuous S-fold on a corded track. Clean and contemporary, and it needs a proper wall run to stack back onto.

Explained
Silver curtains, explained
Silver curtains cover quite a broad church here: plain cool greys, silvery voiles, charcoal tones and a few patterned fabrics where silver or grey sits in the background rather than doing all the work. In practice, this filter reads more as silver-to-grey curtains than one exact shade. You’ll see options for eyelet, pencil pleat and pinch pleat, with blackout and thermal linings available on many ranges. If you are comparing subtle plains with more decorative designs, it helps to judge them in your own room, as silver can read crisp, warm or slightly darker depending on the light.
Silver curtains sit comfortably in modern and traditional rooms alike. Plains keep things quiet; soft texture, embroidery and geometric patterns give the same colour family a bit more movement.
Best for
- Bedrooms and living rooms where a calm, neutral colour works year round
- Schemes with grey, white, black, stone or muted accent colours
- Windows that need a softer finish than a blind on its own
- Adding blackout or thermal lining without moving to a heavy-looking fabric
Worth knowing
- Some ranges in this filter are warmer grey, charcoal or patterned rather than a clean silver plain
- Voile options soften daylight but do not give the coverage of lined curtains
- The sample suggests a few non-curtain or mis-tagged items are mixed into this colour filter
How to choose
- 1
Pick the silver tone first
Not every fabric here is the same kind of silver. Some are pale and airy, some sit closer to mid grey, and some have a charcoal note. Hold samples against your wall colour, flooring and any metal finishes, as the same fabric can look cooler or softer at home.
- 2
Choose the heading around the room
Eyelet suits a more relaxed look on a pole. Pencil pleat is flexible on a pole or track. Pinch pleat feels more tailored and structured. If you already know how you want the curtains to hang, that usually narrows the choice faster than colour alone.
- 3
Think about lining and use
For bedrooms, blackout lining is often the practical choice. In living rooms, thermal or standard lining may be enough depending on the window and the room. Voile styles are useful where you want light filtered rather than blocked, but they behave very differently from lined curtains.
Silver curtains: questions people ask
Are these all plain silver curtains?
No. The filter includes plain silver and grey curtains, but also textured weaves, charcoal tones, voiles and patterned fabrics where silver or grey is part of the design. If you want a straightforward plain, it is worth looking closely at the product photos and samples rather than relying on the filter name alone.
Do silver curtains make a room feel cold?
They can, but not always. A pale silvery grey with a matt texture often feels softer than a shiny fabric, and embroidery or a brushed weave can take the edge off a cooler tone. In north-facing rooms especially, samples are the useful test, as the room light changes how silver reads.
Can I have silver curtains with blackout lining?
On many of the ranges shown here, yes. The sample includes several curtain fabrics offered as blackout curtains as well as standard heading options. What is available depends on the range, so your advisor can confirm the lining choices for the fabric you have shortlisted.
Are voiles included in this silver curtains filter?
Yes, the sample shows some sheer voile styles in pale silver-grey tones. They are useful when you want privacy with daylight still coming through, but they are a different product from lined curtains. If you need room darkening or more insulation, ask to compare voile and lined options side by side.
Can I pair silver curtains with a blind?
Yes. A common arrangement is a blind fitted in the reveal with curtains outside it. Silver curtains work especially well with simple roller, Roman or Venetian styles, depending on the room. Your advisor can bring the full sample range, measure each opening and price the combination per window.

1. Eyelets
Metal rings through the heading sit straight on the pole, with no hooks or gliders in between — very little to catch or snag.
Your advisor brings samples of every option to your window, so you can see and feel them before you choose.
Autumn
The evenings are drawing in
Now's the time to sort the windows you've been meaning to do — blackout for the bedrooms, warmer layers for the living room. An advisor brings the samples to your windows, free.

Why our curtains service is right for you
01
Sewn to your drop, not a size chart
Shop-bought curtains come in fixed widths and drops. Ours are cut to the pole or track you actually have, so the hem lands where you want it — at the sill, below it, or just breaking on the floor.
02
Enough fabric to hang properly
A curtain that looks thin is nearly always a curtain that was not given enough width. We work to a proper fullness for the heading you choose, so the folds stay deep even when the curtains are drawn.
03
The lining does the hard work
Standard lining for body and drape, blackout for a bedroom, thermal for a cold north wall or a single-glazed bay. The lining decides how the room feels far more than the face fabric does.
04
Poles, tracks and dressing included
We measure the wall rather than just the window, fit the pole or track level, then hang and dress the curtains so the pleats set in from the first day.
Finance options available. We offer flexible ways to pay so a whole-house refresh doesn't have to land in one go. Your advisor will talk you through what's available at your appointment.

What people hang behind them
Plenty of rooms end up with a blind as well as a curtain — for blackout, for daytime privacy, or simply because a radiator or window seat rules out a full drop.

Curtains: your questions answered
Headings, linings, poles and pairing curtains with a blind on the same window.
Which curtain heading should I choose?
Eyelet curtains run straight onto a pole and fall in deep, even waves — the simplest to draw. Pencil pleat is a gathered tape that works on a pole or a track. Pinch pleat is hand-formed in groups and stitched, which is the most tailored look and stacks tightest. Wave hangs from a track in a continuous S-curve and suits large modern windows.
What difference does the lining make?
A standard lining protects the fabric and improves how it hangs. Thermal lining measurably helps a cold or draughty room. Blackout lining is what you want in a bedroom. Interlining adds weight and body for a heavier, more expensive drape.
Do you supply the poles and tracks?
Yes, and your fitter puts them up. Getting the pole height and width right is part of the job — curtains that clear the sill and stack off the glass need the pole set beyond the opening.
Can I have curtains and a blind on the same window?
Very common. A slim roller or roman inside the reveal gives you blackout and privacy, with curtains face-fitted outside it for warmth and dressing. Your advisor will check the reveal is deep enough for both to work.
Is fitting included in the price?
Yes. The quote you are given covers the product, the fitting and the guarantee. Your fitter hangs everything, checks the operation with you and takes the packaging away.
How is a quote worked out?
By the size of each opening, the product and fabric you choose, the heading or mechanism, and any motorisation. Because everything is made to your measurements there is no single list price — you get a written figure on the day, itemised per window, with the fitting and guarantee included.
What guarantee do I get?
A 1-year guarantee on every blind, shutter and motor we supply and fit. If something goes wrong inside that period, ring the office and we come back out.
