The fabric absorbs sound which can reduce echo and reverberation in medium and high frequency waves, for example clattering of dishes or clangor of cutlery. The combination of the chenille yarn and the special weave construction of the fabric makes the curtain sound absorbent. The curtain has been verified according to ISO 354. The curtains lower the general light level and provide privacy by preventing people outside from seeing directly into the room. The curtains can be used on a curtain rod or a curtain track. The heading tape makes it easy for you to create pleats using RIKTIG curtain hooks. The lightweight fabric has a stylish texture and drapes beautifully. The colour is easy to combine with different furniture styles and textiles.
