Etherealveil Blackout Curtains 40 x 72 Inches

For a small bedroom window, pantry, or reading nook, these wine-red blackout curtains add privacy without the look of a basic flat panel.

The set includes two 40 x 72-inch panels in 100% polyester, with pinch pleats and back tabs for a more tailored drape.

Adjustable hooks are included, but rings are not. That distinction matters if you already have a rod setup in mind.

Technical details

Each panel has six pinch pleats and six tabs. The set also comes with 12 hooks, adjustable by 1 inch in height. The panels are 40 x 72 inches each, and the fabric is 100% polyester. The listing says the curtains can block 95%–99% of sunlight, darker colors are described as the better choice for stronger shading. Wine red is the color named for this set.

The fabric is also described as thermal insulating and sound reducing. Those benefits may be useful near a drafty-feeling window or where outside noise is a concern, but the listing gives no measured temperature or sound reduction. Treat those claims as a general feature, not a guaranteed room-level change.

Compatibility & requirements

The pinch-pleat and back-tab design is described as compatible with standard and decorative rods and tracks. You can use the included hooks or hang the panels by their back tabs, depending on your setup. Rings are not included, so a rod arrangement that requires rings will need those separately. The 40-inch panel width is intended for smaller windows, measure your window and hanging space before choosing this set.

Usage tips

For a quick setup, hang the panels by their back tabs, or use the adjustable hooks to set their height. If you want to soften glare in a small study window while keeping the room private, the darker wine-red fabric is the more relevant choice than a light-colored curtain. The pleats also give the window a dressed look without adding a separate valance.

The curtains are machine washable in cold or warm water, can be tumble dried, and may be ironed or steamed to remove creases. Avoid bleach. On the spec sheet, the light-blocking range is broad, so expect the actual room effect to depend on the window and how the panels are hung.

When it makes sense

A solid pick if you want two coordinated panels for a small window, prefer a pleated look, and can use back tabs or hooks with your existing rod or track. They make more sense than plain, unstructured panels when the appearance of the drape matters alongside privacy.

You may want to skip it if you need a wider set for a large window, require rings in the package, or need a clearly quantified level of noise or heat reduction. The listing does not provide those measurements.

Questions before you buy

Are curtain rings included? No. The set includes 12 adjustable hooks, but rings are not included.

Can the panels be washed at home? Yes. The care instructions allow machine washing in cold or warm water and tumble drying. Do not bleach, use an iron or steamer for creases if needed.

Can I choose how to hang them? The listing supports hanging by the back tabs or using the included hooks. Which method works best depends on your rod or track setup.
