About the Deep Pencil Pleat Heading

The extra header depth gives the top of the curtain more structure, which stops tall curtains from looking top-light and helps the folds run true all the way to the floor.

We recommend it for full-height windows and for heavier fabrics that need a stronger heading to carry the weight.
