Please note the Swish Romantica Range has now been discontinued by the manufacturer. As an alternative we would recommend the Rolls Honister, Laura Ashley Ribbed Ball or Jones Shore curtain pole ranges.

The Swish Romantica range of curtain poles is available in 28mm or 35mm.
These curtain poles are suitable for all curtain heading types, however for a smoother draw eyelet curtains are better suited to a metal curtain pole.
If you are considering readymade curtains, standard eyelets are 40mm in diameter and for a smoother draw are better suited to a curtain pole up to 32mm in diameter. The curtains will fit onto a 35mm curtain pole but you may need to help your curtains along the pole. This isn’t a problem for dress curtains or curtains that are only drawn occasionally. Made to measure eyelet curtains (link) can be specified with a 50mm eyelet which is better suited to a 35mm curtain pole.
Curtain headings that require curtain rings such as a pencil pleat, pinch pleat or other gathered headings, are a more popular choice on a wooden curtain pole. Shop our range of readymade pencil pleat curtains including iconic and more contemporary designs from leading homeware brand Laura Ashley.
Made to Measure Curtains:
You may prefer made to measure curtains for your curtain pole. Shop our range of fabrics that can be made into beautiful curtains to fit your requirements.
Readymade curtains are only suitable for curtain poles up to 360cm. If you require curtains to fit a wider pole, or you have a drop longer than the standard readymade drops made to measures curtains are the perfect choice.
Curtain Pole Measuring Guide
Decide where the pole is to be positioned. This is usually above the window with the pole extending either side beyond the window.
Step 1: Measure the width of your window.
Step 2: The chart below provides guidance for making an allowance either side of your window for your curtain stack (shown as ‘B’ on the diagram above). This is particularly important if you want the curtains to clear the glazing when open. Please note the curtain heading, fabric thickness and lining specification will affect the width of the stack back. How much you would like the curtains to clear the window is down to personal preference. The chart below however is a good guide.
Step 3: Add the width of your window onto the ‘B’ measurement (x 2 for a pair of curtains) to give you the finished track length (A).
Please note this is just a guide so we recommend choosing the pole length available within your preferred curtain pole range that best suits your requirements. All poles can be cut to size with a junior hacksaw. We offer a cut to size service on some curtain pole ranges. Please read our measuring guide blog post for further information.
