If you are searching for a definite look for your curtains then curtain holdbacks may well be something that you should consider, as they will enable you to arrange your curtains when they are open. For a contemporary easy-living finish, leave the curtains to rest gently in casual folds or, for a more traditional sophisticated effect, gather the curtains up into a swag and arrange across the window.
Natural and stained holdbacks tend to be circular disc-shaped, often with the grooves of the decorative design detail being highlighted with a patina effect or, for extra glamour, silver or gilt. Natural or stained curtain poles usually have a corresponding holdback that matches the colour finish of the pole.
