Known for their simplicity and clean casual lines, French Return / Radius drapery rods (or poles) are smartly fashioned to return to the wall. These rods are perfect for pleated, grommet, tab-top, and rod-pocket style drapery treatments. They also are completely functional for draperies with rings used with bypass brackets. Their sleek inward curves allow drapery panels to wraparound the pole and stack back against the wall. They achieve a clean and polished look with full fabric closure on both ends which adds privacy, reduces noise, drafts, and limits the sidelight that occurs with straight rod styles.
We offer an extensive line of one and two-inch scale French Return / Radius rods including six different shapes, single and double rod options, and custom lengths up to 20 feet (contact Help Desk for shipping prices on lengths over 15 ft.).
