About the fabric
Sebastian is a double-faced velvet, with velvet on both sides of the cloth. The short, dense pile has a fine diagonal grain and a soft, low sheen that shifts as the folds turn, so deep shades like Forest show light and shadow down every pleat, while the paler colors read calm and even.
Blackout, with real weight. At 518 gsm, Sebastian is one of our heaviest fabrics, and it blocks daylight on its own, with no separate lining needed. That makes it a natural choice for bedrooms, nurseries and media rooms, and its weight lets the panels fall in deep, heavy folds.
Made for your window. Every panel is cut to the width and length you enter. Sebastian is woven extra wide and run sideways (railroaded), so panels up to 240 inches wide are made without a seam. 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 pinch and box pleats suit Sebastian's weight and the formality of velvet in traditional rooms and dining rooms.
Five solid colors, from Ivory and Warm Ivory through Pale Flax and Flax to Forest. 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.
