Look at the pleat close up
Examine the paired folds, stitching and spacing. A small heading sample tells you more about the finish than a distant room image.
Compare the finished stack
Stack-back depends on cloth, fullness and hardware. Do not assume every double pleat uses less space than every wave curtain.
Balance pattern and scale
Check the motif at the sewn top and across adjoining panels. Pattern alignment and hems should be part of the quote.
How we would style it: A textured neutral gives a modern classic room quiet structure. Patterned or softly lustrous cloth adds depth beside simpler upholstery.
