Silk Curtain Fabric

Why Choose Silk Fabric for Curtains?

Silk curtain fabric is valued for how well it handles during curtain making and how neatly it hangs once fitted. It’s naturally lightweight, yet has enough body to hold pleats, pinch folds, and wave headings without sagging. This makes it ideal for tailored designs where clean lines and shape retention are important

Because silk is breathable and temperature-regulating, it helps maintain a comfortable atmosphere indoors, keeping rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter. For window treatments exposed to direct sunlight, silk is best used with a quality lining or interlining to prevent fading and extend its lifespan.

Types of Silk Curtain Fabric

Our collection includes different types of silk curtain fabric, each suited to specific curtain styles.

Embroidered Silk Fabric

Embroidered silk is best for feature curtains or formal settings where texture and detailing add visual depth. The embroidered stitching slightly increases the fabric’s weight, helping it drape more evenly and resist creasing. It’s a good choice for statement windows or layered designs with tiebacks.

Floral Silk Fabric

Floral silk curtain fabric works well in living rooms and bedrooms where you want pattern and movement without overpowering the space. Designs such as the Budding Border Embroidered Silk Dupion and Anthea Rose Embroidered Silk Dupion highlight how floral silk can bring texture and colour into a space while still draping neatly. Pairing with a lining helps maintain colour vibrancy and structure over time.

Furnishing Silk Fabric

Furnishing silk is the most structured option, ideal for lined curtains, pelmets, and coordinated cushions. The added body helps pleats stay crisp and improves insulation when used with interlining, making it a practical choice for large windows or draughty spaces.
