Possibly the most traditional and formal heading style on offer. Creates a sumptuous statement and works well with heavier, opulent fabrics. Especially suitable for curtains with long drop. A nice option for grand buildings or a lofty period property.

Goblet pinch pleat drapes have a strip of stiffener sewn into the heading, which is pleated at the base to create a goblet-shaped design. Goblets are placed at intervals and are consistent within a pair of curtains.

Just like pinch pleats, this is a 'fixed' heading (the pleats are sewn by hand to a fixed heading and fitted with hooks and cannot be loosened), so it is important to provide an accurate track/pole width when ordering goblet pleats. This will allow us to gather your curtains to the correct width.

Not recommended for smaller windows as these curtains need more room to stack back at the side of the window than the contemporary styles.

Pencil Pleat

A popular and classic style for a casual and relaxed setting. A smarter alternative to other traditional styles such as the Pinch pleat curtains.

Each curtain has small folds at the top that are gathered closely together to resemble a row of pencils laid side by side. They are created by pulling the cords on the heading tape and winding them around a cord tidy to keep the pleats in place. Pencil pleats offer a highly adjustable option as cords can be pulled to achieve the desired gather and curtain width.
