At Byron and Byron, we specialise in treating wood using multiple layers of heat, paint and lime wash, hand-finished for added depth and durability. Our rustic curtain poles bring authentic character to any interior through meticulous craftsmanship that mimics nature's passage of time.

We excel at perfecting techniques that capture uneven wear, faded effects and scorched textures using controlled temperature and specialised brushing methods. Our impressive range includes lime washed, fire-treated and distressed wooden curtain poles from bleached white to almost black – perfect for coastal, country and contemporary interiors.
