heavy drapery
Weighty window covering
Heavy drapery refers to window coverings or decorative fabric hangings made from thick, substantial materials like velvet, brocade, or lined textiles.
These drapes are valued for blocking light, providing insulation, and adding a formal or luxurious aesthetic to interiors.
The term distinguishes such treatments from lighter options like sheers or unlined curtains.
