Pelmet is a decorative, narrow strip of cloth,
used to conceal curtain fixtures at the top of a window casing or door.
Dressing up a window with curtains of other decoration accessories can
not only be fun but, if done correctly, add greatly to the look of the room.
Today, pelmet is been treated as a part and parcel of curtains and
window-dressing as a whole. In order to select the perfect pelmet for the room,
the factors that have to be considered are the space of the room and the fabric
& the style to be stitched.
Some
of the pelmet covers to be simple in shape while others may have scalloped
edges, and still others are dressed up with an edging of lace. Braid or tassels
can be added to the bottom edge to enhance the shape of the pelmet. Pelmets are
crafted in fabrics coming with classic prints , classic weaves , modern weaves
and some kinds of silk etc. with unusual and radiant color combinations. These
are padded and neatened with lining material at the back.
