Our Natural hemp curtains, with hemp rope rings, have a beautiful light, soft beige/latte tone being made of natural and undyed hemp. Please note that this is not the same hemp fabric as the Purely Natural, it has more of a cotton like feel, instead of a linen like feel. However, they do still work well with the Purely range.
Our hemp window panels are simple yet elegant. They are characterised by a diffused glimpse of light through the textural finish of the weave and feel soft and cool to the touch.
The hemp panels can be used singularly, eg for patio doors, or as a pair for most standard windows. The tops have sewn eyelets and the hemp rope rings are easily detachable, should you wish to use your own curtain rings. Please note that the wood buttons to the rope rings are stained, so are darker than those shown in the product image.
Please note that these curtains coordinate with our exclusive range of 100% hemp 'mix and match' table linen and cushion covers, being made of the same fabric.
Dimensions :
single 100% hemp panel = approx 143cm width x 220cm length
100% hemp rope ring with wood button = approx 6inches length
Please note it is possible that there may be some irregularities in the weave, which should not be deemed a fault as it can be characteristic of a natural fabric. Please remove hemp rope rings, if washing.
