Start with the fabric

How much light
should come in?

Do you want to look outside through your curtains, reduce people seeing in, or make your bedroom dark? The fabric makes the difference. Explore the seven available fabrics, from open weave to blackout.

All fabrics and specifications

Light filtering fabrics do not give complete privacy. When it is dark outside and the lights are on inside, people can see in through the fabric.

Light filtering wave curtains

Even with the curtains closed,
the light stays in your home.

Would you like to close the curtains during the day and still let daylight in? Then semi-sheer is a fabric worth looking at. The weave is clearly visible when light shines through it. Lovely for the seating area, next to the dining table or in front of a large glazed wall.

Semi-sheer is more densely woven than voile and inbetween, but still lets light through. If you would rather be able to see outside more, also compare the lighter fabrics. A few samples at your own window show the difference best.

How the wave heading works

How do the waves
keep falling evenly?

With wave curtains, the fabric falls in even S-shaped waves, alternating in front of and behind the track. The hooks sit at fixed intervals in the wave tape. The cord limits the distance between the gliders to 6 or 8 cm. When opened, they slide towards each other.

The 6 or 8 cm size is the distance between the gliders in the track. For both versions we use 200% fabric: about twice the curtain width. When you open the curtain, the folds come closer together at the side.

8 cm

Wider waves

A larger, deeper fold. Lovely when the fabric has room to fall in front of and behind the track.

6 cm

More compact waves

A smaller fold with less depth. An option if you have less space at a track or ceiling recess.

Compare 6 and 8 cm wave

Colours for your interior

White, sand, beige.
Or would you prefer green?

White, ecru, sand and beige are easy to combine. With rust or green, your window gets more colour. Look at the real fabric samples and compare them against your wall, floor and furniture.

From living room to bedroom

Which curtains suit
your room?

In the living room you may mainly want less light on the TV. In the bedroom, you want to be able to darken the room. Dim out can be a good choice for both. Below you can see how that might look at home.

A little less light in the living room

During the day you draw the curtains aside and look outside. Is the sun on the TV, or do you want to close off the room in the evening? Then you draw them closed. Dim out blocks about 75–85% of the light and gives plenty of privacy.

The colour makes a difference: a dark shade darkens more than a light one. The mood image shows a combination with a wooden floor and a light sofa. Dark green is not in our dim out collection. See the available dim out colours among the samples; for green, you can choose opaque curtain or blackout.

Wave curtains for a dormer window

You can hang wave curtains at a dormer window too. When measuring, pay attention to the space next to the window, the windowsill and the sloping walls. The waves need room both in front of and behind the track, even when you open the curtain.

The photo shows dim out. If you want as little light as possible through the fabric, also compare blackout. That fabric itself lets no light through. Light can still come in around the edges, so the position of the track and the measurements remain important.

Look beyond the fabric

The track can be
on show, too.

A pole-style track in bronze, brass or chrome stays visible above your curtain. If you would rather conceal the track, you can choose a pelmet box. Below you can see two combinations of fabric and pole-style track.

Already have a track?

Check whether suitable wave gliders fit your track. When ordering, you can add white or black gliders on a cord, for narrow or wide channel tracks and to suit a 6 or 8 cm wave. The track itself is not included.

From ceiling to floor

Wave curtains
for large windows.

With a sliding door or a wide run of windows, a curtain can run beautifully across the full width. We make up our floor to ceiling fabrics without vertical seams, up to the maximum finished drop of the chosen fabric.

The maximum drop differs per collection: from 275 to 305 cm. So first choose a suitable fabric for your window. For larger sizes, you can contact us to discuss the options.

Made in the Netherlands

Fully finished.
Ready to hang.

Your curtain comes with the wave tape, the hooks already in place and the end spreaders included. Voile, inbetween and semi-sheer get a weighted hem tape at the bottom. It gives the bottom edge some weight, so the fabric falls neatly. Textured weave, opaque curtain, dim out and blackout get a 10 cm bottom hem.

We deliver your curtains hanging and carriage paid. After hanging, give the fabric time to drop out and arrange the waves neatly in front of and behind the track.

The practical side

Good to know
before you choose.

What does a curtain cost, does your track fit and how much privacy does the fabric give? Here you will find the answers to frequently asked questions.

View all frequently asked questions
How much do made to measure wave curtains cost?

You see the price as you design your curtain. First choose a fabric and colour, then the wave heading, configuration and measurements. Any gliders are shown as a separate option on the product. This lets you compare different fabrics for the same specification.

View the fabrics and calculate your price
Can I hang wave curtains on my existing track?

You can if the track is suitable for matching wave gliders and the weight of the fabric. The gliders are connected by a cord and must match the chosen 6 or 8 cm wave. Also check the space in front of and behind the track. Ordinary loose gliders alone are not enough.

See which track and gliders are suitable
Which wave curtains give privacy without making the room dark?

Compare inbetween and semi-sheer if you want to keep daylight and reduce how much people can see in. How much you see through the fabric also depends on the light inside and outside. With the lights on, people can see in through a light filtering fabric. For privacy in the evening, you can add an opaque second layer.

Compare voile, inbetween and semi-sheer
Are blackout wave curtains completely darkening?

The blackout fabric itself lets no light through. Even so, light can come in along the sides, top or bottom. The position of the track and the measurements therefore also determine how dark your bedroom becomes. Dim out blocks approximately 75–85% of the light; darker colours darken more.

See the difference between dim out and blackout
Can I order one curtain or two equal panels?

You can choose two equal panels or one panel that opens to the left or right. Measure the total track width. The configurator calculates which width is needed to complete the wave. With two panels, this is done per curtain panel. You do not need to double the width yourself for the folds.

Read how to measure the width
When will my curtains be delivered?

We make your curtains in the Netherlands and normally aim for a production time of a maximum of 8 working days. Delivery follows after that: your curtains are delivered hanging and carriage paid by a specialised carrier. So the production time is not the same as the day you receive the curtains at home.
