I have never been a drapery kind of guy. But I felt I needed to upgrade my new home to reflect my newfound success as a businessperson and my artistic achievements. Dale guided me through the process of selection and delivered beautiful floor to ceiling drapes that far exceeded my expectations. The quality of the Thai silk and the workmanship are pretty magnificent. I am recommending Sumptuous Silks to anyone that is looking for draperies.

Dale,
I bought a condo in San Francisco, and I am remodeling it completely. I was looking all over for the right drapes that would compliment the design and still stay within my remodel budget. I found your web site and ordered drapes for the entire home, hoping that they would be as nice as they looked on-line. They arrived yesterday (in just 4 days) and I just hung the cream with chocolate border in my bedroom. They look magnificent! I couldn't be happier. They are well made and very solid. The silk is truly beautiful, and I know that they will last and look great for a long time. I can't wait to hang the rest of them. I have two more colors to look forward to!
Thank you for all your help and advice. I would recommend your product to anyone.

I received my beautiful chocolate silk taffeta drapes today. My husband hung them and within minutes my bedroom was transformed. They are truly wonderful even better looking than the website pictures. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they were barely wrinkled and required no steaming or pressing. Just perfect!!! I am so very satisfied and will spread the word to friends.
Thank you.

Dear Dale:
The wedding was a smashing success. Your tablecloths which glowed like ball gowns set the tone and stage for a very elegant affair. I would suggest that you consider adding these to your line there is a void in the market for table linens for square tables which is the hot trend on the wedding scene right now.
I am forwarding your email to our rental company and florist web site.
These two pictures were taken as the tent was being prepared I will send you more pictures as I get them.
Thanks again for a fantastic job.

I wanted to let you know that I LOVE my silk drapes. The tobacco color looks great in both my dining room and living room. The quality of the drapes are unbelievable. The fact that they are lined and interlined make them looks so rich and of such high quality. Both the drapes and the fixtures arrived quickly. You were a pleasure to work with and it was great to purchase such high quality drapes and fixtures in one place --- quickly.
Thanks...

Dale,
I have received my drapes and my husband immediately went out and rented scaffolding so we could hang them when I got home from work. The burgundy and tobacco banded drapes are BEAUTIFUL. I am so pleased with the quality of the fabric. The box pleat is perfect for this window. Your help with the style, color selection, and hanging options were invaluable. The size of the drapery was precisely accurate (38 x 172) even though hanging them was a challenge. The drapes are MUCH heavier than I ever anticipated (due to the quality of the fabric, lining, and interlining) and they hang beautifully. I will without a doubt refer anyone looking for fine silk drapes to you! As a side note, the hardware is also gorgeous and of outstanding quality. All hardware arrived the day before my drapes so your timing could not have been better! Thanks for all your help.

Sumptous Silk was fabulous from the beginning stages of planning, selecting fabric and choosing the appropriate size and length of the panels all the way through to selecting appropriate hardware that would really show off the elegant draperies and my home. I was overwhelmed when the panels arrived. Such gorgeous silk and truly expertise craftmanship all the way through to the lining and inter lining. Dale was outstanding to work with and will definitely be a repeat customer!

Dear Dale,
Having discovered Sumptuous Silk, my husband and I think it time to host a gathering at our home. Our dining and formal living rooms, the two areas in which we like to entertain guests, are now complete with draperies, and what a difference! The rich, regal silk complements the formality of the rooms yet simultaneously adds a feeling of warmth. The natural light that streams through the windows in the daytime plays upon the panels creating a mesmerizing effect. In the evening,
the glow from lamps gently reflects off the silk, seeming to enlarge the spaces. The French-pleated, tobacco draperies have truly transformed these areas. Rooms once rarely used have now become our favorite places to enjoy a cup of coffee or a good book. Thank you for your immense help to us during the decision-making process. Your suggestions for drapery color, length, and width as well as hardware choices proved invaluable. The time you spent with us over the phone and via e-mail created unparalleled customer service. We could not be more pleased with our experience with Sumptuous Silk and anticipate further drapery purchases from you.
Sincerely,
Tobie and Mike Robison, Olive Branch, MS

"As novice drapery buyers, my wife and I were extremely lucky to find Sumptuous Silk and we knew from our initial phone call that we were getting much more then just custom silk drapes. We were getting consultation and design expertise on styles, trends, hardware, and installation and hanging advice as well.
Sumptuous Silk viewed digital pictures of our dining room and made recommendations on colors, width and length that proved to be just right. While the pictures on the website make the fabrics look luxurious, it in no way compares to the actual finished product. With the new drapes installed, our dining room has the look and feel of a formal banquet hall.
Thank you very much Dale for your warmth and patience with us. We only have 12 more windows to cover!

Dear Dale,
It really was a pleasure to have worked with you. I want to thank you for all the expertise and personal attention you provided. I doubt that other larger online companies can provide that kind of assistance, nor can they match your prices!
My sage silk drapes are absolutely stunning. I am such a stickler for quality; I was afraid I would be disappointed, but these drapes surpassed my expectations! The color is also perfect. The hint of green complements my dark wood furniture, and the subtle sheen of the fabric makes them especially rich looking. My living and dining room have suddenly become so regal! I'm sure that anyone who sees (and feels) these drapes will be equally impressed. I have a feeling that I will be placing another order very soon...
Thanks again for everything, Dale. I'll be in touch.
Sincerely,
Jennifer

My great experience with Sumptuous Silk!
My husband and I have been in our brand new home a little over one year. We have worked very hard to be able to purchase nice furniture in our home. However, we had neglected the windows in several rooms in our home due to the pricing of quality curtains. Daily I searched the internet comparing the quality and price of window treatments of many companies. Finally, I connected to the sumptuoussilk website. Within a short period of time I received my swatches. After sharing the swatches with my husband, we both agreed on chocolate silk tafetta panels.
When Dale called me, she took the time to discuss the quality of her curtains as well as answer all of my questions. There was no sales pressure! We talked like two women interested in conversing about quality curtains/drapes. When I received the drapes, my husband was just as excited as I was! We had originally planned to put the four panels in our family room: instead we put them in our dining room. Immediately, we knew we had to order four more panels for the living room. The drapes are stunning! The service is exceptional!
The price is unbeatable for such quality!

I would just like for anyone who is looking for silk drapery to know about this fabuluous place! I spent months looking on different websites and going to places to get custom orders made! Sumptuous Silk is by far the best there is around! First of all, Dale is a jewel to work with! She is so helpful and so prompt. I ordered my drapes and got them in two days! I have to say I was not sure what to expect, because I have never ordered anything like this from the net. I have other silk drapes in my house that I had custom made that were very expensive and took a long time to have made. I will say that Dale's drapes are probably a better made drape than the ones I paid thousands of dollars for. One of the things I love is how thick and rich the lining and interlining is. The ones from catalogs etc... are so cheap looking and flimsy. Also the catalog ones are more expensive. I honestly have never seen a better price for these beautiful drapes! I ordered the pink/ivory and they are just gorgeous- they look even better than Dale's pics. My friends saw them and just assumed I had them custom made like my other custom drapes - little did they know they were much more affordable! I have spoken with Dale via e-mail and phone many times now and she is just the greatest to work with. This is by far the best internet ordering experience I ever had. Not one single problem with anything. I plan on ordering more drapes from her as soon as I figure out what color I need. She is so great to send any swatches you want to see. Dale's drapes are really gorgeous and just soooo affordable. There is no where out there this good! Thanks so much for listening!
Sincerely, Missy Barze

Dear Dale,
I just wanted to let you know I received the drapes Tuesday afternoon and they are absolutely beautiful! I only took one out of the packaging to admire it, but I'm sure they are all equally "sumptuous". Actually timing couldn't have worked out better. I had taken a few days off work this week to spend time with my daughter who is home from school on her winter break and luckily when FedEx delivered the drapes I was home to sign for them.
Yesterday I brought all the panels to the drapery shop that is making the cornice boards for me so they could add the tassels to the panels. They were quite impressed with the silk panels too. Which is high praise from people who make draperies as their livelihood. I could never have afforded to have them make those panels for me. The fabric alone (if I could even have found such high quality silk) would have cost more than the completed draperies you sent me.
As I've said when the project is done I will be sure to take pictures and email them to you. Thank you so much for all your help and for making such a beautiful product available at an affordable price.
Sincerely,
Pauline Graham
