Modern Handcrafted White Applique Curtain

What motif sits inside the frame?

A tree with a bird is worked white on white inside a framed border. The motif is large and placed at the heart of the curtain, so it reads as one composed picture, with the bird giving the tree a sense of life.

How does the framed border shape the look?

The border draws a neat edge around the tree and bird, so the design feels like a picture hung in the window. On a white base, the frame and motif come through as texture, giving the curtain structure without adding colour.

Does it look sheer?

Yes, the base has a light, sheer look, so the white-on-white applique reads as a delicate pattern. It suits a bright, uncluttered room with white or pale walls, light wood and simple linen furnishings.

How do I cover a window wider than one curtain?

Each curtain is 44 inches wide and 84 inches long, about 3.5 x 7 feet. For a wider window or doorway, measure the full width and plan enough curtains to hang side by side across it.

Will every curtain look identical?

Not exactly. Each one is handcrafted, so minor irregularities in the tree, bird and stitching are natural. Colour hues can also look slightly different on different screens. These variations are the character of handmade work.

Can I gift it?

Yes. A white applique curtain is an easy gift because it sits with most decor. It is handcrafted in Barmer by a women's self-help group led by master artisan Khetaram, which gives the gift a story of handwork.
