Velvet Curtains: Simply Regal

Velvet has been in use since 2000BC. However, being an expensive material, its use was restricted to the royalty and nobility. Spanning the medieval era, through to the Renaissance period, till today, velvets have been put to use in several ways. From beautifying attires to making upholstery to decorating rooms, velvets have added regality and luxury to whatever usage it has been put to. It was only after the industrial revolution that velvets garment was made affordable to the common man. Nowadays, velvet curtains have taken the home furnishing market by storm.

Types of Velvet Curtains

You can find different types of velvet curtains at a reputed online source. There are essentially two types of the fabric:

Plain weave with cut pile: This is a soft, deep, rich-colored fabric which is mostly used to design formal gowns or eveningwear.

Cut velvet: This has a pattern ‘cut out’ from the uncut loops of pile and is used in interior decorating applications. Cutting the pile produces two more types of velvet:

• Crushed – This kind of velvet requires mechanical twisting while wet. This can be used for both, apparel-making and interior decorating purposes. To be used as upholstery, crushed velvet must have a coated backing for stability.

• Panné – Application of heavy pressure on the pile in a single direction produces this variety of velvet.

Velvet curtains available in the online market include Signature Petal Velvet, Signature Moroccan Blue, Signature Sage Silver, Signature Espresso and Custom Pleated Velvet. They are available in a wide range of shades, such as, ash green, royal blue, lichen green and maroon wine.

Maintaining Velvet Curtains

Easily crushed, velvet fabric requires some extra effort during the cleaning process. If you prefer not to dry clean them and would rather clean them yourself, remember the points mentioned below:

• Determine the velvet type and select the cleaning procedure accordingly. Crushed velvet will lose its luster if an over-zealous wet wash is applied. Similarly, rubber-backed velvet must not be heat-dried.

• Create a foaming mixture with liquid soap and water to wash velvets. Use only a drop of dish soap in a bucket of lukewarm water.

• For spot cleaning, you can sponge the foam on the required surface area to remove stains. Cleaning the entire surface in a similar fashion will prove effective, although time-consuming.

• Brush the velvet into the clothesline with a soft brush.

• Allow the material to dry off completely before brushing it again to remove stiffness.
