Better looking than I thought. I wanted the black but was out of stock for two months so ordered the navy. It actually looks more modern and adds an extra pop of slight color on the edges. These curtains are used as a sliding door cover in lieu of vertical blinds and they look look beautiful. Privacy, and allows filtered light to flow through. Be prepared to iron for a seamless and professional look. Steaming took too long and wasn’t as Seamless as ironing. It was worth the effort and time. Love them!
