Tall Velvet Curtains, 270 & 310 cm Drops with Four Heading Options
$229.50
Description
Long, unpatterned velvet folds bring a composed frame to tall windows, softening the outline of a room without adding another print. Choose Dark Blue for a deeper accent, Beige or Light Brown for warmth, Grey for a cooler scheme, or Yellow for a stronger colour statement.
The listed sizes offer 270 cm and 310 cm drops with four heading choices. Before ordering, confirm how many panels each purchase includes, how the selected width is measured and which heading suits your rod or track. For custom sizing, contact the store with the required width, drop and heading before placing the order. The paired and multi-window displays in the gallery illustrate styling rather than the quantity supplied by one purchase.
Why These Tall Velvet Curtains
- Quiet surface: Solid colour lets the folds and velvet texture provide the detail.
- Long-drop choices: Two listed heights support different tall-window plans when measured from the chosen heading.
- Heading choice: Rings, hooks, rod pocket and pull pleated tape offer different ways to finish the top.
- Colour-led styling: Neutral and stronger tones can frame a room or become an accent in their own right.
- Width options: Multiple listed widths allow measurement-led planning once panel quantity and width convention are confirmed.
Where to Hang Them & How to Plan the Window
Use the curtains to frame a bedroom window, soften a living-room wall or repeat a consistent line around a dining corner. Position the rod or track first in your plan, then measure from the correct hanging point to the intended hem. Different headings change where the fabric begins, so a stated drop is not interchangeable across every installation.
Measure the usable rod or track span rather than the glass alone. For gathered folds, the fabric width normally exceeds the span it covers: flat fabric width is not the same as gathered display width. Confirm whether the selected width is flat fabric or a finished pleated width before calculating quantities. Do not assume one purchase supplies a pair.
As a styling example only, a 200 cm span at a chosen 2× fullness would call for 400 cm total flat fabric width, divided between your preferred panels. This is not a coverage guarantee: panel count, heading take-up, overlap and side returns must be established first.
The source describes blackout use, but whole-window light control also depends on edge gaps, heading and installation. Avoid treating the original absolute percentage as a guaranteed room result. Choose a separate sheer layer if you want a softer daytime look, using compatible hardware rather than assuming a sheer is included.

Rings Top is illustrated with eyelets over a rod; Rod Pocket is shown gathered on a rod. Hooks Top and Pull pleated tape use different heading constructions. Confirm rod diameter, hook or carrier compatibility and included fittings for the selected heading rather than assuming every option fits the same hardware.
Measure in several places where floors or ceilings vary, and allow for the hem position you prefer. Dimensions are approximate; confirm final measurements for custom requests before ordering.
Styling Tips & Suggestions
Warm Neutral Living Room
Pair Beige or Light Brown with cream upholstery and oak furniture. Let the uninterrupted folds supply texture, and leave room beside the window for the drawn-back fabric so the room does not lose more daylight than intended.
Deep-Blue Bedroom Frame
Use Dark Blue as a calm contrast against light bedding and warm metal details. Plan overlap and side coverage for the window, keeping expectations about light control tied to the finished installation rather than the colour alone.
Yellow Accent Window
Choose Yellow as the principal colour statement with white walls and a restrained rug. Repeat the tone in one small accessory instead of adding several competing patterns around the window.
Cool Grey Contemporary Room
Combine Grey with clean-lined furniture and a warmer timber accent to avoid an overly flat palette. Check the fabric colour against your wall in both daylight and evening lighting before planning other matching textiles.
Corner Dining Windows
Repeat one colour and heading around adjoining windows for a continuous rhythm. Measure each run separately and check corner brackets and curtain stacking so neighbouring panels can move without bunching together.
Layered Daytime Look
Add a separately selected sheer behind the velvet for a lighter visual layer when the outer curtains are open. Use a compatible double-rod or track arrangement and allow enough space for both fabrics to move.
Tall-Wall Visual Balance
Use a long drop to draw the eye upward, after confirming the heading-to-hem measurement. For doors and busy paths, favour a hem clear of the walking area rather than decorative pooling that could snag or obstruct movement.
Not Ideal For
Not a sheer or a guarantee of complete whole-room darkness. Avoid choosing by window-glass width alone, assuming a pair is included or treating every heading as compatible with the same rod or track. Keep fabric away from cooking flames and heaters.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does one purchase include a pair?
Confirm the supplied panel count with the store before ordering. The paired and multi-window photographs illustrate styling and do not establish the quantity included.
What drops and headings are listed?
The listed drops are 270 cm and 310 cm. Heading options are Rings Top, Hooks Top, Rod Pocket and Pull pleated tape; confirm compatibility with your hardware.
How do I choose the width?
Measure the usable rod or track span and decide the desired fullness. Confirm whether the listed width is flat fabric or finished pleated width, then allow for panel quantity, overlap and side returns.
Can I request a custom size?
Contact the store with the required width, drop and heading. Confirm the final measurements, panel quantity and ordering details before purchase.
Will the curtains make the room completely dark?
The source describes blackout use, but whole-window results depend on the fabric, heading and installation gaps. Do not assume complete room darkness from the product description alone.
Important Notices & Disclaimers
Confirm panel quantity, width convention, heading and final drop before ordering. For custom sizing, agree the width, height and construction details in advance. Curtain rods, tracks, sheers, furniture and decorative items in the photographs illustrate styling and are not established as included.
Velvet appearance changes with pile direction and lighting; screens may display colours differently. Follow the supplied care label before washing, drying or applying heat. Use suitable supports and fixings for the finished curtain weight, and keep fabric clear of flames, heaters and moving doors.
Shipping & Delivery
Before Ordering

Unpack carefully and check each supplied panel, heading and measurement before hanging. Packaging can leave folds; consult the care label before attempting to remove creases.
Installation Planning

Dimensions are approximate. Confirm panel quantity and finished coverage before ordering; styled scenes do not establish supplied quantities or whole-room blackout performance.
