Why Choose Our Handmade Curtains?

Original Artwork & Exclusive Prints

At the heart of every blind is our unique artwork. Starting with hand-drawn sketches in our studio, designs are printed onto durable fabric, ensuring you’ll never find the same pattern elsewhere. From soft botanicals inspired by North Norfolk hedgerows to graphic geometrics that suit a contemporary interior, our prints allow you to personalise your home with confidence.

  • Original Artwork

    Every print begins as a sketch and hand carved into lino. From botanical motifs inspired by North Norfolk hedgerows to modern geometrics, our designs are exclusive to Zia Living.

  • Quality Fabrics

    We use cotton-linen blends, premium textiles chosen for their drape, durability, and natural texture. Please check our products for the latest fabric options and composition details.

  • Professional Craftsmanship

    Each curtain is sewn by skilled UK makers. Hand-made with discreet header tapes or pole-pocket finishes, giving a wide range of curtain styles for your home.

Made to measure

We pride ourselves on offering made-to-measure curtains, which are fully bespoke for your specific window requirements, when ready-made standard sizes are not suitable for non-standard window sizes or unique shapes.

  • Custom Pelmets & Trims

    With pelmets, trims, and coordinating tie-backs all to complete your scheme.

  • Unique Colourways

    If you have a specific shade in mind, we can customise our existing designs to your favourite colour or complement your existing soft furnishings or decorating scheme.

  • Made to order

    Our curtains are typically made within 8-12 weeks of the fabric order. Please contact us to discuss lead times.

Care Instructions

To keep your curtains looking their best:

  • Vacuum Regularly

    Use a soft brush attachment to remove dust.

  • Spot Clean

    Gently dab spills with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid soaking the fabric.

  • Re-hang Promptly

    After cleaning, re-hang to minimise creases.

  • Professional Cleaning

    For deep cleaning or stubborn marks, we recommend taking your blinds to a specialist curtain cleaning service.

Following these steps will preserve fabric integrity and keep your curtains beautiful for years to come.
