Signature Black and White designer Velvet Curtain Panel - 60W x 96L - PieceOur velvet curtains, Drapes have a luxuriant, rich look and they are heavy which is great for keeping the light out and the heat in. Velvet refers to the soft, furry covering on deer's antlers and velvet-effect material is produced from woven fabrics made with cotton or man-made fibers such as polyester. Velvet has a soft, deep pile which feels almost furry when you brush hand over it and gives depth and richness to the color with strong contrast between light and dark. Velvet curtains are ideal for bedrooms, living rooms and home theaters as they do keep the room completely dark when they are drawn.
