Our design for The Hunter’s Moon, the British country pub in the heart of South Kensington, champions comfort and cosy get togethers...Café curtains in the front window added to the intimate setting and created a soft barrier between the busy Fulham Road and cosy pub within. Again, a subtle fixing method that was both practical and refined in design was lovingly created and installed.”
Nicola Lindsell, Boxx Creative.

Product description

Café curtain poles are the ideal solution to cover the bottom half of any window to gain that extra level of privacy but still maintaining maximum light. If you would like to add a decorative finial to the end of the pole we offer a simple but stylish Café Button finial.

The interior designers who use these Café Rods frequently use pocket sewn, sheer fabrics or unlined light cotton or linen. Usually the curtain is short, lightweight and not lined but really the choice is yours.
