Add rich texture to your home with these beautiful velvet curtains. They have an eyelet header for easy installation and are suitable for hanging on a range of poles. The lined backing ensures privacy and helps to reduce light into the room. These curtains are also temperature smart, so the thermal lining helps keep the room warm during the winter and cool during the summer. Maximum Warmth Heat Rating: These curtains have been given our Maximum Warmth heat rating which 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 mid blue velvet curtains for adding a touch of sophistication and softness to any room. Their rich hue works beautifully in both modern and traditional interiors, especially when paired with neutral tones or metallic accents. The velvet fabric gives a lush texture that enhances cosy, inviting atmospheres, making them perfect for living rooms or bedrooms. Practical styling tips include pairing them with lighter wall colours to make the blue pop, or using them as a statement piece in a minimalist space. They also work well with curtain poles that have sleek or vintage finishes for versatile looks. Overall, these curtains are a smart choice for anyone wanting to elevate their window dressing while maintaining a practical and stylish edge.

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.
