Scalloped Curtain Valance Cottage Collection Curved Finish

All Gotain curtains are sewn by hand in Sweden. The scallop edge valance is available in two different styles, with straight finish or curved finish. One model has curved ends, which is the classic valance look that frames the curtain installation and covers the sides. The look that we call “straight finish” leaves the sides open, suitable for wall-to-wall installation, for more information and examples, click here.

• The valance comes with a complete kit, ready for easy installation. The kit includes a track with velcro tape and ceiling brackets for ceiling mounting.
• Want to hang a curtain behind your valance? Order a regular curtain track to be mounted behind the valance.
• Valance with straight finish: Is delivered in one piece up to 200cm long. For longer valances than 200cm, the track will be cut in two, a jointer is included to fix the two parts together. Valances up to 280 cm in width are made in one single piece of fabric. For widths exceeding 280 cm, the valance is made with a 280 cm center panel, with the remaining width divided and added to each side.
• Valance with curved finish: Is delivered in one piece up to 200cm long. For longer valances than 200cm, the track will be cut in two, a jointer is included to fix the two parts together. The curved ends are bent angles attached to the straight track using separate joining parts, one on the right side and one on the left side. The depth of the bent anges is 15cm. Valances up to 280 cm in width are made in one single piece of fabric. For widths exceeding 280 cm, the valance is made with a 280 cm center panel, with the remaining width divided and added to each side.
• Since all valances are handmade, the final width/length of the curtain may vary by +/- 1 cm from the ordered measurement.
• Maximum width 400 cm - Maximum lenght 60 cm

For wall mounting, you will need to add wall brackets separately. Please also keep in mind that the choice of straight or curved ends for the curtain valance, the number of rails behind it, the weight of your curtains, and the overall look you want to achieve all affect which wall brackets you should choose.

If you're unsure which solution is best suited to your curtain setup and desired look, feel free to contact our curtain experts for advice.

Curtain Valance Width:

The valance is 15 cm deep and is mounted on the ceiling (if you want to mount it on the wall, you need to contact us to order wall brackets).

The valance is installed in front of a standard curtain track with curtain lengths. To measure how wide the valance should be, take the outer width of your window frame and add +25 cm.

To measure how wide the curtain track should be, take the width of the valance and subtract -34 cm. The final look will be a valance that covers your window plus +15 cm on each side.

The valance with a curved end should always be ordered based on the total width, not the visible width. Please note that 25 cm of the total width is used to create the curved finish and is therefore not part of the visible front-facing width.

Example: If you want a visible width of 200 cm, order the pelmet in a total width of 225 cm.

This is a general guide for a single-width look. If you want a more tailored solution for your window, we recommend consulting our curtain experts.

Curtain Valance Height:

The recommended height for a curtain valance is approximately 35 cm, which creates a balanced and stylish impression in most windows. If you need more coverage or want a more decorative feel, you can choose a taller model – we offer curtain valances up to 60 cm in height.

Our woven linen is made from the highest quality, 67% linen and 33% viscose for a heavy drape. The fabric is certified according to OEKO-TEX. All Gotain fabrics are woven in Spain and Turkey.

Care
To maintain color and quality, we recommend vacuuming your curtains regularly. Use a soft nozzle and pull gently along the fabric to remove dust and dirt that would otherwise press into the fabric over time. Use a steamer to minimize wrinkles.

• In the case of dirt/stains, we always recommend treating the stain immediately. Clean with warm water on a white cloth - dab gently against the fabric and finish by steaming - let dry.
