Dove Arrow brings the softest, most approachable neutral in the range — a gentle warm grey-white that makes every room feel settled and considered. At 206 GSM in 100% Polyester Filament, the directional Arrow weave gives this quiet tone a geometric structure that reads as texture rather than pattern. Machine washable, spill-resistant, and made to your exact drop and width.
Dove is the colour between white and grey that decorators reach for first. It’s not stark, not cold — it has a warmth that cool greys don’t have, and a softness that bright whites don’t either. In the Arrow weave, the 23.6 × 23.6 cm directional repeat adds surface structure to this gentle tone, creating the kind of visual depth that rewards attention. Different angles of light — morning sun, afternoon shade, evening lamp — read differently on the Arrow surface, making the colour feel more alive than a plain would.
The 206 GSM weight in 100% Polyester Filament means this curtain has real presence without heaviness. The filament construction delivers a clean, consistent drape from the first hang and maintains it indefinitely — no relaxing of the weave, no progressive sag. Dove’s warm undertone means it works in both cooler and warmer rooms, bridging palettes without committing too hard to either.
The spill and stain resistant construction does quiet, important work on a pale colourway. Marks that would stain a natural fibre sit on the surface of this polyester weave and clean off easily. Machine washable at 40°C, near-zero shrinkage, odour resistant — the practical side is taken care of so the visual side can take all the credit.

Fabric Information
The Dove Arrow curtain is woven in 100% Polyester Filament — a construction chosen for its long-term dimensional stability, colour retention, and inherent resistance to staining and moisture. Unlike natural fibres, polyester filament doesn’t absorb liquids or hold odours, which means these curtains stay fresh longer between washes and clean up easily when they need it. The 23.6 × 23.6 cm Arrow repeat gives the Dove colourway a geometric surface structure — the kind of quiet depth that makes this tone feel carefully chosen rather than simply safe. At 206 GSM, the fabric is mid-weight: light enough to filter daylight gently, substantial enough to hang cleanly at any drop. The Dove colourway is dyed for colourfastness, holding its warm grey-white tone through years of machine washing and exposure to natural light. Stays beautiful, season after season.

FAQs
1. Is Dove a warm or cool tone — and which rooms does it suit best?
Dove sits in the warm-neutral zone — it has a soft grey-white quality with a warm undertone rather than a cool blue-grey cast. This makes it genuinely versatile: it works in warm-toned rooms (timber floors, cream walls, linen upholstery) without looking out of place, and it also reads well in cooler or more neutral rooms where it adds a gentle warmth. It’s the most universally flattering of the Arrow pale tones, which is why it’s a consistently popular choice.
2. Does Dove work well in a bedroom?
It’s one of the best curtain colours for a bedroom. The warm grey-white tone creates a calm, restful atmosphere — neither too bright nor too flat. At 206 GSM, it filters daylight gently, reducing morning glare without making the room feel closed off. For bedrooms where significant light blockout is needed (early risers, shift workers, children who sleep past dawn), adding a blackout lining is straightforward and something we can supply with the order.
3. What is the difference between light-filtering and blackout curtains?
Light-filtering curtains — like the Dove Arrow at 206 GSM — reduce glare and soften direct sunlight without blocking the room’s natural light entirely. The room still feels bright when they’re drawn. Blackout curtains are lined or constructed to block virtually all incoming light — the room goes dark. Most bedrooms and living rooms suit light-filtering; rooms where complete darkness is needed (bedrooms for light sleepers, home cinemas) suit blackout. The Arrow curtain can be ordered with a blackout lining if required.
4. Can I layer these curtains with a sheer panel?
Yes — layering is a popular approach with the Dove Arrow. The most common configuration is a sheer panel on the inner track (closest to the window) for daytime privacy, with the Dove Arrow on the outer track for evening privacy and light control. This requires a double curtain track or rod, which is widely available. The clean, versatile Dove tone works well behind most sheer colours.
5. What happens to the drop measurement after washing?
Near-zero shrinkage means the drop stays accurate after washing — this is a built-in property of the 100% Polyester Filament construction. When you wash at 40°C on a gentle cycle and hang straight to dry, the panel returns to its pre-wash dimensions. This is one of the significant advantages of polyester filament over natural fibres like cotton and linen, which can shrink meaningfully on first wash.
6. How does the Arrow pattern look at a distance vs. up close?
At normal room distance (2–3 m), the Arrow pattern reads primarily as a textured fabric with subtle directional depth — you register the surface interest before you identify the specific geometric repeat. Up close, the 23.6 × 23.6 cm weave structure becomes clear. This is by design: it means the curtain works visually at both scales, giving the room texture without demanding attention from across the space.
