Sahara Rod Pocket 96-inch Curtain Panel

I liked the curtains but they were the wrong color (antique blue). Since they didn't have another blue I went with another style by the same manufacturer. These look like silk and the design is flocked on. I like the weight of them. They aren't sheer and can't be seen through, but they let the light in. The design is bold and makes a statement. I also needed 94" curtains and these were some of the few I could find. And the price is good, too.

I really like these curtains. Reviews stating that the fabric was like burlap made me hesitant, because I wasn't sure if the material would look cheap and too casual for my contemporary leather dining set. The modern print looks wonderful and the fabric adds a nice layer of texture to the decor. The only thing that kept me from giving a 5 star rating is the color. I ordered natural/black, and from the picture I thought the "natural" was off white. It's much darker - more like oatmeal, but it still works nicely with my cream colored chairs because it's the same shade. The curtains aren't high end, but they don't look cheap either. I'd definitely recommend these if you have a modern/contemporary decor and want to add texture and a print that isn't too busy.

While the panels are beautiful, they are much darker than they appear online...I ordered both the blue and the natural with chocolate to see which I liked better...fabric is a nubby, wide-weave linen-like fabric...no lining...blue is more of a deep dirty aqua blue...very pretty...but not what I was looking for; Natural color is a very gray linen color and again darker than it appeared. Flocking is a velvet-like applique...very pretty brown...I will be returning them, but not because of quality...I wish they did match! Just make sure the color will work...

After reading the reviews for these panels, they were totally what I was expecting. I would have preferred better quality. Two of four panels were significantly longer and need to be hemmed. When panels are drawn to the middle, the pattern match is way off. I laid out all four panels and tried to obtain the best match for each window. I even had to hang one panel by the hem to get a better match. Both windows have a completely different look since the top of one has more of the brown flocked portion of the pattern at the very top while the other has more of the base curtain color. Also wish there was a way to have bigger color swatches to view or for curtain color to change by clicking on the other colors. It is difficult to base a big decision on such a little square.
