The GAÏA gathered curtain instantly adds a touch of softness to a room thanks to the supple, slightly embossed texture of the double cotton gauze. Unlike a very smooth or overly stiff curtain, GAÏA retains a lively, natural drape that works just as well in a bedroom as it does in a living room, a study or a family room. Its 140 x 240 cm size is suitable for a wide range of windows and French windows, whilst its gathering tape allows you to easily adjust the width of the fabric to suit your installation.
A curtain made from double-layered cotton gauze – supple and easy to care for
Made from 100% cotton, this curtain uses a double gauze weighing 125 g/m². The fabric offers a lovely texture without visually weighing down the window. It filters the light whilst maintaining a light and cosy feel in the room.
The tone-on-tone satin stitch finish is deliberately understated. It ensures the curtain’s lines remain unbroken and, above all, allows the colour and texture of the gauze to take centre stage. This is precisely what makes GAÏA easy to incorporate into a wide variety of styles: natural décor, cosy bedrooms, bohemian interiors, contemporary furnishings or more classic interiors.
The curtain measures 140 cm wide by 240 cm high. Before ordering, measure the distance between your hanging system and the floor. You can choose to have the curtain hang just above the floor for a clean look, or leave a few extra centimetres if you prefer a softer, more enveloping feel.
19 colours and a gathering tape to suit your décor
The real highlight of this curtain is its extensive colour range. You can choose from Apricot, Brown, Camel, Duck, Chantilly, Eucalyptus, String, Granite, Marshmallow, Wine Stain, Midnight, Cloud, Pampa, Rosemary, Peach Blossom, Saffron, Fir, Terracotta and Water Green.
For a bright and soft-looking room, Chantilly, Cloud, String or Pampa are easy choices to coordinate. Eucalyptus, Rosemary, Water Green or Fir create a more botanical atmosphere. Terracotta, Apricot, Saffron or Peach Blossom instantly add warmth to the décor. Finally, Minuit, Canard, Lie de vin, Brun or Granit add greater depth to the window.
The gathering tape allows you to adjust the width of the curtain and create folds of varying depth. Depending on your setup, it can be used with a track and suitable clips or with a curtain rod fitted with rings and hooks. The detailed photos allow you to visualise these different hanging options more clearly before choosing your installation.
If you wish to frame a large window or a French window, using two curtains creates a more balanced and generous look. For a narrower window, a single panel may suffice, depending on the effect you are aiming for.
Advice on choosing, care and frequently asked questions
When choosing your colour, start with the elements already present in the room: walls, sofa, bed linen, rugs or furniture. A shade similar to your décor will create a soft, seamless look; a deeper shade, on the other hand, will create a focal point around the window.
Care is straightforward: wash at 40°C with similar colours, spin gently, tumble dry if required, and no ironing is necessary. Cotton gauze is particularly prized for its naturally textured appearance: trying to smooth it out completely would take away some of its charm.
Mamimosa’s tip: hang the curtain back up whilst it’s still slightly damp after washing. Its own weight will help the gauze regain a lovely drape without needing to get the iron out.
Is the curtain blackout?
No. The double-layered cotton gauze filters the light but is not designed as a blackout fabric. It is particularly suitable if you’re looking for a soft, natural ambience rather than complete darkness.
What are the curtain’s dimensions?
Each panel measures 140 x 240 cm.
How does the gathering tape work?
It allows you to adjust the width of the curtain and create pleats to suit your setup. You can then use the appropriate fittings for your rail or curtain rod.
Does the cotton gauze need ironing?
No. Its slightly crinkled texture is part of its natural look and actually makes it easier to care for.
