A really beautiful pair of handmade vintage cotton velvet curtains in a stunning peacock blue - These are a lightly crushed velvet so they are very light reflective and wonderful to touch as well.
Made in the 1950's and in truly wonderful condition for year/
Freshly laundered and ready to hang.
Fully lined in 100% cotton 

I also have a single window/door curtain for sale in the same fabric if interested -listed as lot 2. 

Photos really are accurate by eye, pantone 288c and 289c (in shadow) are pretty close. 
If you would like a photo against a particular colour just let me know. Like all velvets the colour shifts depending on the light but i sell a lot of velvets and not come across this very vibrant blue before.

They are Cotton, not synthetic velvet, and nothing like todays crushed velvets
They are in great condition for year - made in the 50's 
Thes are handmade and the hem has been turned over in the middle - presumably to even it out so i havent unpicked this. As they arent tailored smartly they do have a handmade feel to them, not draping perfectly. 


The dimensions above are for EACH curtain in the pair, un-gathered. Below are the measurements in inches and in centimetres. 
When fully pleated they are about half the un pleated with but this is adjustable using the strings in the header tape. 

Width: 66 inches (168cm) each ungathered
Drop : 81 inches (206cm) 

I try to measure accurately but sometimes room for minor error so let me know if more precision needed. 


Please take a good look at the photos and description and measurements and ask any questions you may have prior to purchase. 
I can accept returns but it is very time consuming and has other consequences and complications for me, so please do not buy on a whim. Buyer pays postage costs. 

I try to ensure the photos show accurate colour but also please see colour comparisons given to check as this can be a useful tool. 

Whenever possible i will post next working day and will send tracked.
