The aubergine color is exactly what I have been searching for! I live in a 96 year old building with old, drafty windows...and lots of them! So I needed not only blackout curtains for my room, but some energy efficient, thermal ones as well. These curtains are amazing! They look and feel nice and are a great addition to my walls. They've helped insulate my windows to the point that I do not feel a draft coming from them anymore. I did my research on these types of curtains and don't think you can beat the quality and price.
