An elegant set of six European Tambour / Venise-style lace sheer curtain panels dating to the 1950s, featuring beautifully dense embroidered lace headers paired with soft, flowing sheer bodies.
Each panel is finished with a richly textured lace yoke showcasing intricate scrolling motifs and corded embroidery, a hallmark of mid-century European textile craftsmanship. The lace extends into individual looped tabs designed to slide directly onto a curtain rod, creating a tailored, lightly gathered presentation without the bulk of a rod pocket.
Below the lace header, the panels fall into long, airy sheers that diffuse light while maintaining privacy—ideal for full-height windows, French doors, or layered installations. The proportions and construction reflect European production standards of the era, with measurements that differ from typical American sizing.
The overall effect is refined and architectural rather than rustic, making these panels equally suited to Parisian-style interiors, romantic European spaces, or classic mid-century rooms
