Order Curtain

A curtain is
the window's one garment.

Just as tailored clothes differ from off-the-rack,
a curtain, too, can be composed.
Measured to the window, chosen in fabric, sewn one at a time.
That is an order curtain.

Ready-made / Order

The curtain you buy,
and the curtain that's made.

Ready-made curtains are produced to a set of standard sizes. They're easy to bring home.

Order curtains are measured for your window, chosen in fabric and specification, then sewn one at a time. They take a few days, sometimes a few weeks. At the end of that time is something quiet and rare: the way a curtain looks when it truly fits the window.

Ready-made

Ready-made curtains

Mass-produced in a few standard sizes — 100 cm wide × 135, 178, 200 cm long, and so on. They're available on the spot, but the size rarely matches the window exactly; the hem falls short, or cold air slips through the sides.

Order

Order curtains

Made to your measurements, to the centimetre. Bay windows, irregular shapes, and outsized panes are all accommodated. When the size is right, insulation, warmth, and light-blocking all improve at once.

Like clothing.
When the size is right, the whole room composes itself.

Craftsmanship

The number of pleats
decides how the drape reads.

The standard for order curtains is a generous 2× pleat, which uses twice the fabric of the flat width. Compared with the 1.5× pleats common in ready-made, the wave is deeper and more even. It's why a plain, unpatterned fabric can still feel considered.

The hem is a 10 cm triple-fold with weights sewn in, so its line falls straight to the floor. The tacks are stitched vertically. All of it made in domestic ateliers.

These small decisions, layered together, are what let a single panel hold its line for ten years.

Six reasons

Six reasons
people choose to order.

01

Sized to the centimetre

Width and length in 1 cm increments — bay windows, irregular shapes, all accommodated. With no gaps, the light-blocking, insulation, and finished look all settle into place.

02

Sewn to last

A 2× pleat with weighted hems, made in domestic ateliers. Panels hold their line for a decade without warping.

03

Fabric, freely chosen

From natural linens to modern or classical weaves — colour, pattern, and material chosen for the room.

04

Functions, layered

Blackout, thermal, sound-absorbing, UV-blocking, flame-resistant. Only the functions your window and your life require.

05

Chosen with a coordinator

An interior coordinator walks with you through fabric and specification — so the choice is quieter, and rarely regretted.

06

Cost, over years

Because they last a decade or more, the total cost often comes in lower than repeatedly replacing ready-made. In one comparable case, the difference was only ¥1,870.
