Macrame Leaf Valance, 110 x 55 cm, With or Without Rod
Estimated delivery: 3–10 days
Item details Materials, dimensions, what is in the box
A window curtain 55 cm tall would look like a mistake - this piece is not trying to be one
We call this a curtain in the name, and our own "suitable for" line even mentions blackout curtains. Ignore both. 55 cm tall, covering roughly the top fifth of a standard doorway - styled as a topper above furniture, not across an opening.
What it actually is: a hand-knotted macrame leaf pattern panel, 110 cm wide, worked in natural cream cotton cord across roughly ten repeating columns of a spiraling leaf-and-vine motif, finishing in a long fringe that tapers to knotted tassels. It reads as a macrame valance or a wide boho fringe wall hanging - the kind of piece that sits above a mantel, a headboard or a console rather than in a window frame.
It comes two ways: with a set of connecting wood sticks that assemble into the top rail, or without any rod at all.

What you get
- One panel, 110 x 55 cm, in a single natural cream colorway - no other size or color is offered.
- With the rod option, three connecting wood sticks. Our own packing list reads "1 pcs Tapestry + 3pcs connecting stick" - the top rail assembles from three pieces, not one solid dowel.
- Without the rod option, the panel only. Our packing list for this choice reads "1 pcs Tapestry" - nothing else.
- A repeating leaf and vine knot pattern down roughly ten columns, tapering into loose fringe with knotted tassel ends.
- No wall hardware either way. Neither option includes a hook, bracket or nail.

Dimensions, and what they mean on your wall
The Shopify option value currently reads "110x55m" - meters, not centimeters - which is a typo carried over from our data; we have used the correct unit throughout.
| Width | 110 cm / 43.3 in |
|---|---|
| Height | 55 cm / 21.65 in, top rail to the longest fringe tips |
| Proportion | About twice as wide as it is tall - a horizontal band, not a floor-length drop |
| Wall space needed | About 110 cm wide by 60 cm tall including clearance for the fringe to hang free |

How to hang it
With the rod option, the three connecting sticks join end to end to form a single 110 cm rail, which then rests on hooks or an existing curtain rod - the pieces themselves are not hooks. Without the rod option, we don't show or describe how the top edge finishes; no separate photograph exists for that choice, so we cannot confirm whether it ends in loops for your own rod or simply in the same header cord seen on the rod version.
Care instructions conflict between our two sources. We are stating both rather than picking one.

Picking with or without the rod
With the connecting sticks. Costs more, and gives you a ready-made 110 cm top rail built from three joined pieces - useful if you have nothing else the right length to hang it from, or want it to rest across hooks without threading a rod through anything.
Without the rod. Costs less, ships as the panel alone, and suits anyone who already owns a curtain rod, a wooden dowel or a rail the right length. What the top edge looks like without the sticks is not shown in any of our photographs, so if you need loops or a pocket for your own rod, confirm that before ordering rather than assuming it.
Both options are the same 110 x 55 cm panel in the same single cream colorway - the choice is only about what shows up in the box to hang it with.
Where this actually earns its place
Above a headboard, where a full floor-length hanging would compete with the bedding. At 55 cm tall, this sits as a band of texture along the top of the wall instead, which is the shape headboard wall decor actually wants in a narrow room.
Over a mantel, a console or a row of wall hooks, the way we photograph it - the fringe falls just far enough to read as intentional without swallowing whatever sits underneath. That is the use case behind macrame valance as a search term, and it is what this piece is actually built for.
As a topper layered over a plain roller shade or sheer, where the "curtain" framing in the title does apply loosely - it can dress the top of a window as a valance, filtering a narrow band of light, without functioning as the window's only covering. It is not a privacy or blackout solution on its own; see Honest Limits.
Honest limits
- Our own "blackout curtain" claim is false. Our "suitable for" line lists privacy, window and blackout curtains alongside wall hangings, but the knotwork is open and lace-like in every photograph. It filters a room's edges; it does not darken one.
- We have stated both rather than picking one.
- There is no photograph of the "without stick" option. Our two option images are identical, so we cannot confirm how the top edge finishes on the rod-free version.
- The product page's size value reads "110x55m." That is a typo for centimeters, carried over from our option data. 110 x 55 cm.
- No weight and no size tolerance are published for this piece, unlike some others in this collection; plan your wall space at roughly 110 cm wide by 60 cm tall, which already includes clearance for the fringe to hang free.
Before you buy
Is this a full window curtain?
No. It measures 110 cm wide by 55 cm tall - about the top fifth of a standard doorway.
What's the difference between the two options?
Hardware, not size or color. The "without stick" option ships the panel alone, with nothing to hang it from.
Is it cotton or polyester?
Contains cotton.
Will it block light or give privacy, like the "suitable for" line suggests?
No. It softens a space; it does not darken or screen it.
Why does the size show as "110x55m" on the product page?
110 cm wide by 55 cm tall.
How do I clean it?
We give two different answers here. We are passing along both rather than choosing one.
Does the "without stick" version have a way to hang it?
Not confirmed. We don't have a separate photograph of that option, so we cannot say whether the top edge has loops for your own rod or finishes the same way as the rod version. Plan to add your own hanging solution if you need one.
Is it handmade?
Detailed questions and answers
How much wall space does it need?
About 110 cm wide by 60 cm tall, allowing clearance for the fringe to hang free below the 55 cm knotted body.
What exactly are the '3 connecting sticks'?
Where should I hang this?
Above furniture rather than in a window or doorway - a headboard, a mantel, a console, or a row of wall hooks, which is how we photograph it in every room shot.
Does it come in other colors?
No. One colorway: natural color cotton rope. The Shopify option is labeled 'Color' but both of its values describe the rod choice, not a color.
What does the pattern look like up close?
A repeating spiral of leaf and vine shapes knotted down roughly ten columns, in plain cream cord with no dye or print, tapering into loose fringe with knotted tassel tips.
Is the Color option really about color?
No, despite the label. Both option values describe whether connecting rod sticks are included, not a color choice - there is only one colorway.
How much does it weigh?
No exact figure is published. What ships is one woven cotton panel, plus, with the rod option, three connecting wood sticks that join into the 110 cm top rail. It's designed to rest on hooks or an existing curtain rod, not to arrive with its own mounting hardware.
Will the size be exact?
No exact tolerance figure is published for this piece, unlike some others in this collection where we state a 1-2 cm allowance. Plan your wall space around 110 cm wide by 60 cm tall regardless - that already includes clearance for the fringe to hang free, so small variations in the hand-knotting won't crowd whatever sits beneath it.
What brand is this?
Unbranded. It's sold simply as a hand-knotted macrame leaf-pattern valance - no third-party maker's mark, label or brand name appears on the panel or its packaging.
Is this claimed to be eco-friendly or artisan-made?
Can I use it over a mantel or shelf?
Yes - that is the use shown in our own room photographs, with the fringe falling just past the top of the furniture below.
What exactly is in the box?
Depends on the option chosen. 'With stick' ships the panel plus 3 connecting wood sticks. 'Without stick' ships the panel only - nothing else is listed either way.
Is this a printed tapestry?
