Price History
Description
These brushed fabric eyelet curtains offer elegant draping and effortless hanging. The blackout finish ensures complete privacy by eliminating outside light, while the temperature-smart thermal lining helps maintain room comfort year-round by retaining heat in winter and keeping it out during summer. Maximum Warmth Heat Rating: Our Maximum Warmth heat rating means that this fabric is proven to show thermal performance helping you keep you warm when the weather gets chilly.
Our Stylist Says
I love these blackout thermal curtains for their versatility and practicality. The cream colour makes them a neutral choice that works well in both contemporary and traditional interiors, adding a soft, warm touch to the room. The brushed eyelet design makes for an easy, fuss-free hang and a modern finish. These curtains are particularly suitable for bedrooms or media rooms where you need to block out light and insulate against noise and temperature fluctuations. For styling, consider pairing them with patterned cushions or layered curtains in complementary tones to add dimension without overpowering the space. They’re an excellent all-rounder for anyone wanting a functional yet stylish window treatment.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
