Features
You have not seen high-quality curtains until you have viewed those made from dupioni silk. This type of silk is crafted from the cocoon of two silk worms nesting together. When the silk is spun, the double strand remains intact, creating an uneven yarn that provides the fabric with a crisp texture and irregular slubs. In some cases, the silk is woven using two different colors of thread, allowing it to change color or shimmer when light hits it.

These Plain Top Pure Dupioni Silk Curtains are made from 100 percent pure and natural dupioni silk. The width of a standard plain top panel is 51 inches and drop length is 85 inches but you can select from various other measurements. Backing made from high-quality 100 percent cotton protects the silk from harsh outdoor light and allows the curtains to drape nicely. Optional interlining includes bump or heavy flannel and colored or blackout lining is also available.

Other optional features include trim, border, and leading edges. With buckram headings and blind-stitching on the side hems, the standard panels feature clean lines. A tie back is included for each panel purchased. For enhanced draping, increase the width by 40 to 60 percent. Ordering double the required width will result in the best appearance.

Curtains are used at homes and for commercial purposes. Curtains used as home furnishing items are functional as well as decorative. Though used primarily to block dust, light and air and provide privacy to the inmates of a home with a little creativity, they can serve as decorative items lending mood and ambiance and style to a room.

There are different kinds of curtains in different textures serving different purposes and creating different styles.

Door Curtains:
These are hung on doors. Used along with various accessories like tassels and beads these curtains can create a personality for your home. These curtain accessories can also be used to turn simple curtains into a piece of class.

Window Curtains:

There are three main types of window curtains which are sash curtains, draw curtains and drapes. While sash curtains help to filter the light coming in through the windows draw curtains completely block out light making them the best choice for giving a cool and dark feel ideal for relaxation and meditation. Drapes are used only for decorative purposes.

Air Curtains:

Air curtains are excellent innovations which save energy by maintaining the interior air conditioning efficiency. They have the additional utility of keeping dust, insects and fumes out. These curtains have a downward facing fan which is usually mounted over an opening like the entrance of a door. The fan must be powerful enough for the jet of air to reach the floor and give a curtain effect. The main purpose is to keep the outside air out. Hot air curtains prevent the outside cold from coming in by allowing the sheet of hot air to mix with the cold draught. Non-heated air curtains are used for cold storage and refrigerated places.

PVC strip curtains:

These are used mainly for industrial purposes in cold rooms, at airports, factories and loading bays. They have excellent thermal and refrigerating capacities as they can take a wind load, say up to 40 kms/hr. They are available in different colours with coatings like tear proof and flame retardant.

Fabric Used in Curtains:

The choice of fabric determines the style and mood of the place. Cotton curtains give a light and breezy look. Tissues are ideal for giving a rich look without giving a heavy feel. Velvets and other rich textured curtains can be used to give a grand and luxurious look. They can be co-ordinated with wall papers, borders and bed linen for an enhanced aesthetic appeal.
