Rings are embedded in the material at the top of the curtains so they can be hung directly onto the pole - this makes them unsuitable for hanging on tracks. Please note, the minimum width for eyelet curtains is 80cms.</p><img src="https://eu-images.contentstack.com/v3/assets/blte635d907602e0a9c/blt39e82f1268f3d35d/64070642b3b7b32e6752d2a9/EYELET.png" alt="eyelet"/></div><div class="sf-info-drawer"><h3 class="text-15 font-bold mb-1.5">Pencil Pleat</h3><p class="font-pluto-light text-13 py-2.5">Pencil pleat curtains have a more tightly gathered pleat that comes together when you pull a cord.

        <p class= "font-pluto-light text-13 py-2.5">The blind is fitted to the window with a bracket without a cassette to cover the mechanism. Please note the reverse of the blind is white which will be visible when the blind is fitted.</p>

        <h3 class="text-15 font-bold mb-1.5">Cassette</h3>
        <p class= "font-pluto-light text-13 py-2.5">The top of your blind is finished with a cassette. The sleek metal box hides all the operating mechanisms out of sight. The front of the cassette is covered with the same fabric as the blind. End caps for the cassette come in black or white and we will coordinate the best option depending on your fabric choice.</p>
