Romantic Handcrafted Yellow Applique Curtain

What is the design on this curtain?

A figure among foliage, worked in olive-yellow on a lime-yellow base, forms the main scene. Below it run bands of geometric lattice. The scene is large and placed, so the curtain has a clear picture at its centre with a patterned base beneath.

What do the lattice bands add?

The geometric lattice gives the lower part of the curtain a structured, repeating pattern that balances the freer foliage above. It anchors the scene visually, so the design feels complete from top to bottom rather than floating in the middle of the panel.

Does lime yellow work in a living room?

It does, if you treat it as the accent. Lime yellow feels bright and fresh, and looks good with white or grey walls, natural wood, cane and touches of green or navy. It also suits a child's room, a study or a breakfast corner.

How big is it, and what about wider windows?

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

Who makes it?

It is handcrafted in Barmer by a women's self-help group led by master artisan Khetaram. Each curtain is made by hand, so small irregularities in the figure, foliage and stitching are natural and part of the piece.

Will the colour be exactly as shown?

Colour hues may vary slightly from what you see, because screens and displays show colour differently. Being handcrafted, the curtain may also carry minor irregularities, which are part of its handmade nature.
