The black and silver curtains are beautiful. They compliment my black leather chairs nicely. The material is quite different than I expected based on the pictures on the website. The curtains do have some imperfections. However, the imperfections are not noticeable once the curtains are hung. The website indicates the maximum rod diameter that can be used is 2"; however, I struggled to get the curtains on my 1" rod. I would not recommend cutting and hemming these curtains if you need a shorter length, since they unravel quite easily. Not sure what is going to happen once I wash these curtains, but they are beautiful for now.
