How to get it
- Light filtering
The linen fabric has a slightly irregular texture that allows daylight to shine through the weave, while also creating privacy. It creates a comfortable light and a feeling of warmth in the room.
Product Details
The curtains lower the general light level and provide privacy by preventing people outside from seeing directly into the room.
This curtain provide privacy, while letting daylight through and help you feel connected with the world outside the window.
Durable and timeless linen with an irregular texture that feels firm but gets softer after each wash. Ideal for any season as the natural fibres breathe and allow air to pass through and circulate.
Curtains with heading tape allow you to hang the curtain directly on the curtain rod using the rod pocket or tabs. You can also hinge the curtain onto a track rail using gliders and hooks.
The heading tape makes it easy for you to create pleats using RIKTIG curtain hooks.

Curtains that fall just as they should
DYTÅG linen curtains have several important tasks. They filter the light from the outside, give a little privacy and contribute with a warm and snug feeling. And for the linen fabric to get just the right soft fall, we use… air.
Linen textiles have been used for thousands of years and are still appreciated today. Our product developer, Alexander van der Spree, is a dedicated fan. “I love linen. It’s easy to care for, hard-wearing, and durable – and only gets more beautiful and softer the more you use and wash it.
Hot air replaces water
But when a linen fabric is completely new, it can feel a bit stiff, and it takes a couple of washes before it has that soft feel and elegant fall you want in a curtain. “Linen products are often washed already when they are manufactured to become softer, but we discovered a method that showers the curtain with hot air to get the same softening effect as a wash” says Alexander. The method means that your newly bought curtains fall softly and evenly already when you hang them up – and less water and chemicals are used. Later, when you wash your curtains, they only become more beautiful. If you prefer a relaxed and washed feel, you can hang them up straight away without ironing the natural creases.
A comfortable light and a cosy feel
DYTÅG curtains are available in several colours and are easy to match with different styles. Alexander explains how they also give a special light depending on which colour you choose. “The slightly irregular structure of the linen filters the sunrays through the curtains and lets in a comfortable and warm light. It gives your room a natural and cosy feel.”
Material
What is flax?
Already thousands of years ago, humans discovered how the fibre in the flax plant’s stem can be treated, spun and woven into a durable linen fabric. Even today, flax is appreciated for its many qualities. For example, it has very good absorbency that makes it particularly great for kitchen towels. The flax fibre’s smooth surface gives bed linens a comfortable and cooling feel, but flax can also be mixed with cotton to get a slightly softer textile.
Function solution
The fabric dims the daylight
The fabric dims the daylight entering the room when it is brighter outside, and reduces glare. It gives you a comfortable sense of privacy because people cannot see in during the daytime. At night, when the room is lit, it is possible to perceive shapes and silhouettes from outside.
