Discover Curtain Panels in a Variety of Styles

Panel curtains are a classic option for framing windows and completing the look of a living room, dining room or bedroom . They gently filter the sunlight coming in and provide privacy when you need it. At Pottery Barn, we carry a wide selection of curtain panels in a variety of colors, sizes, patterns, materials and more. Here is an overview of the different features that allow you to customize your window treatments to your design and functionality needs.

Colors and Patterns

One of the first features people notice about a pair of curtains is the color. Panel curtains are available in a range of solid colors, from neutral and earthy tones to bolder and more saturated hues. Simply pair your curtain to the color palette of the room for easy style. A great way to dress up a solid color curtain is with some choice wall decor, placed either on one or both sides of the window. We also carry beautiful patterned curtains with designs like paisley, florals and stripes.

Sizes

Curtain length has an important impact on the look of your window treatments and the overall look of the room. Shorter curtains are a good choice for smaller windows that you open and close frequently, while curtains over 84" in length are generally made for medium- to large-size windows. The longer the curtains, the more they tend to elongate the look of the room. We carry panel curtains in an array of sizes to ensure a proper fit for all windows, with widths of 50", 100" and 104" and lengths ranging from 63" to 124".

Hanging Options

You have a lot of options when it comes to how you want to hang your curtain panels. The simplest are grommet and pole pocket drapes. Both types come ready to hang and need only to be slid over a curtain rod. If you want your curtain hardware to be more visible, then some of our panels can also be converted to hang by loops or rings. Many convertible panels come with curtain hooks included.

Materials

Cotton and linen are two of the most popular materials for curtain panels. Smooth and soft, they provide excellent light filtration and lend a casual and welcoming feel to the room. Smooth materials also bring a wonderful balance to a textured area rug. Or, if you prefer, you can choose a more textured curtain crafted of velvet or featuring a plush velvet trim to add some extra warmth to the space. For the ultimate luxurious feel, you can't go wrong with sumptuous silk curtains.

Blackout Curtains

When browsing for bedroom window curtains, consider curtain panels that have a black-out liner. Just as stylish as regular curtains, they come with the added functionality of blocking out sunlight when closed. If you often wake up due to sunlight in the morning, then blackout curtains will help you sleep better and longer, ensuring that you wake up feeling rested. By minimizing light, they will also help keep the bedroom cooler on a hot day.

Layered Curtains

The trick to creating an elegant layered look with your window treatments is to hang a sheer panel behind a front panel. The graceful drape of a 100% cotton sheer panel will bring more depth and texture to the design. You can also use sheer curtains on their own in rooms where you want the added privacy but still want a lot of light to come through.

Curtain panels are a simple window treatment that has a big impact on the look of a room. By choosing the right curtains from Pottery Barn, you can enjoy an instant style upgrade. Find the size, color and type of curtains you need to complete your dream design.
