About the fabric
Forrester is a linen blend with a relaxed, natural surface, and the range spans two textures. In Ivory and Sand, thick-and-thin slub yarns leave a mottled, heathered look with flecks of darker fiber; Chalk is a finer twill, smoother to the eye, with a faint diagonal and a gentle sheen. From across the room, all of them read as soft, quiet solids that fall in rounded folds.
Soft light, privacy by day. At a substantial 450 gsm, Forrester softens and diffuses daylight and keeps a room private by day, but it will not darken a room for sleeping. It is well suited to living rooms, dining rooms and studies.
Made for your window. Every panel is cut to the width and length you enter. Forrester is woven extra wide and run sideways (railroaded), and lengths go to 100 inches. Memory shaping is included: the folds are set before shipping, so the panels hang evenly from day one.
Choosing a header. Double and triple pinch pleats suit Forrester's weight and natural texture in traditional and transitional rooms.
Nine textured colors, from Chalk, Ivory and Sand through Greige, Cool Greige and Deep Greige to Sage, Dusty Blue and Cocoa. Order up to five free swatches to see them in your own light.

Width of each panel
Measure your rod tip to tip, ignoring the decorative finials, and divide by the number of panels. Fullness is sewn in for you, so don't add any.
Length: where to measure from
- Rod with rings: from the eye of a ring straight down to the floor.
- Track: from the top of the track down to the floor, then subtract 1″.
- No rod yet: mark where the top of the curtain will sit, 4–8″ above the window trim, and measure from that mark to the floor.
How the hem meets the floor
Choose a finish, then adjust the length you measured.
Example: the ring eye is 96″ from the floor and you want a break, so enter 97″.
The pleat is the sewn top of the curtain. It sets the look of the folds and decides whether you hang it from rings or a track. These are the styles made in this fabric.
Fullness is sewn in. Enter the finished width you want each panel to cover; we add the extra fabric each style needs.
Every curtain shows where its fabric sits on a four-step scale, from sheer to blackout.
Weight isn't the same as light level. Some of our heavier weaves still let daylight through; the weave and finish decide how much light is blocked.
Pleated panels arrive with adjustable hooks already on. Raise or lower a panel at its hooks to level the hem where the floor isn't flat.
