bed curtains
Four-poster hangings
Bed curtains are fabric panels that hang around a bed, typically from a frame or canopy.
Historically they provided privacy, warmth, and protection from drafts in cold houses: She drew the bed curtains closed for the night.
They appear frequently in period literature and holiday stories—Scrooge famously wakes to find his bed curtains stolen in *A Christmas Carol*.
