Really like the linen look, with blackout backing. I purchased them in light gray which goes beautifully with the Boulat Quilt Set and the butterfly sheers. The curtains' labels say dry clean only but the packages have stickers stating machine washable. Since they were badly creased (and smelled a bit) I washed them (cold/delicate) before hanging them wet, hoping the creases would come out. So far they haven't come out completely but I am hopeful they will after hanging for a few days
