Botanical curtain made in France, inspired by antique herbariums
With Herbier Sépia, Joli Jour Paris reimagines the world of vintage herbariums in a warm, luminous, and timeless style.
This printed curtain evokes the old botanical plates that were carefully preserved in cabinets of curiosities, family libraries, or artists’ studios. Wildflowers, delicate grasses, and finely drawn foliage come together to create an elegant design featuring shades of antique linen, sand, sepia, deep black, poppy red, and saffron yellow.
Both poetic and refined, Herbier Sépia makes a strong decorative statement while maintaining a gentle visual appeal.
This large fabric panel, measuring 130 x 280 cm, is available in two finishes: a curtain made of double-layered cotton gauze lined with a solid-color cotton voile, or a sheer made of 40 g/m² cotton voile to preserve the fabric’s lightness and transparency.
And because details matter, each curtain comes with brushed brass rings equipped with clips, for easy installation and an elegant finish.
The perfect choice for those looking for natural, authentic, and charming decor.

A Fresh Look at the Poetry of Old Herbariums
Herbier Sépia draws its inspiration from old botanical collections and naturalists' field notebooks.
The illustration alternates between various botanical plates featuring wildflowers, foliage, and delicate grasses, like so many fragments of a herbarium patiently compiled over the course of the seasons.
The cream, sand, and black backgrounds create a subtle graphic rhythm that gives the pattern a lot of personality while maintaining a timeless elegance.
The subtle touches of poppy red and golden yellow brighten up the whole look and add a lively, cheerful touch.
The result is a richly detailed setting that invites observation and contemplation.

An exclusive creation by Joli Jour Paris
The "Herbier Sépia" pattern is an original design created by Aude Malbat for Joli Jour Paris.
Every detail of the illustration has been carefully designed to capture the charm of old botanical illustrations while infusing them with a contemporary sensibility.
This artistic approach makes it possible to create textiles that tell a story and play a key role in shaping the identity of an interior.
Like all of the Joli Jour Paris collections, Herbier Sépia can be paired with our wallpapers, hanging decorations, pillows, and decorative items to create a harmonious look.
Two finishes to choose from
Herbier Sépia is available in two different finishes, allowing you to choose the look and level of transparency that best suit your home.
Double-layered cotton gauze curtain with lining
The 120 g/m² double-gauze cotton version is fully lined with a solid-color cotton voile.
This lining gives the curtain more structure, volume, and elegance, while preserving the natural crinkled texture and softness of the double-layered cotton gauze.
It also provides a neater finish when viewed from the back and makes the botanical pattern stand out more.
Its advantages:
- Printed double-layer cotton gauze, 120 g/m²
- Solid-color cotton voile lining
- Best Outfit
- It has a more structured and elegant look
- Neat finish on the reverse side
- Soft, natural material
- Soft, filtered light
- A warm and inviting atmosphere
This style is particularly well-suited for bedrooms, living rooms, doorways, and other spaces where the curtain becomes a true decorative element.
Cotton voile sheer curtain – 40 g/m²
The 40 g/m² cotton voile version is intentionally made without a lining to preserve the fabric's lightness and transparency.
Thanks to the fabric's thinness, the printed pattern remains visible on the reverse side as well, ensuring a beautiful finish on both sides without adding any extra material.
Bathed in natural light, the Herbier Sépia design takes on a sense of transparency and softness, like a botanical illustration illuminated by the sun.
Its advantages:
- Printed cotton voile, 40 g/m²
- Unlined to maintain transparency
- The pattern is visible on the reverse side thanks to the fabric's thinness
- Extremely lightweight
- Elegant Transparency
- Aerial effect
- Soft, diffused light
- Smooth movement
This finish is ideal for windows, skylights, and spaces where you want to maximize natural light.
Brushed brass rings included
For an elegant finish down to the smallest detail, each Herbier Sépia curtain comes with brushed brass curtain rings that include a clip.
They make it easy to hang the fabric panel on a rod while adding a sophisticated decorative touch.
The number of rings depends on the material chosen:
- Each lined double-layer cotton gauze curtain comes with 6 brushed brass clip rings.
- Each cotton voile curtain comes with 5 brushed brass clip rings
The clip system allows for easy installation—without eyelets or loops sewn directly onto the curtain—and preserves the simplicity of the fabric panel.
Why choose a double-layered cotton gauze curtain?
Double-layered cotton gauze is appealing for its naturally textured look, its softness, and its casual elegance.
When paired with a solid-color cotton voile lining, it holds its shape better and drapes with a more structured look, which is particularly elegant for a large 280-cm panel.
This finish preserves all the charm of cotton gauze while giving the curtain a more striking appearance and a neater finish.
It blends in perfectly with the decor:
- chic countryside
- bohemian
- family home
- English cottage
- flea market vibe
- natural decor
- A Classic Interior with a Modern Twist
Why choose a cotton voile sheer curtain?
The 40 g/m² cotton voile is ideal when you want to let in as much light as possible.
Its delicate design allows you to dress a window elegantly while maintaining a sense of lightness.
The decision not to line it is intentional: it preserves its transparency and allows the pattern on the reverse side of the fabric to show through.
It gently follows the flow of air and brings a sense of calm to living spaces.
Why choose a botanical curtain?
Floral patterns have timeless decorative appeal.
They bring nature into the home, create a soothing atmosphere, and transcend trends without ever going out of style.
Drawing inspiration from herbariums, Herbier Sépia offers a particularly refined take on the botanical theme.
Its richly detailed design adds depth and character to the decor without requiring many additional accessories.
Colors that are easy to coordinate
Herbier Sépia's soft, natural color palette pairs perfectly with:
- natural linen
- light-colored wood
- weathered oak
- the walnut tree
- rattan
- the cane work
- plant fibers
- sand tones
- the ecru fabrics
- off-white
- sage greens
- the terracotta figures
- natural browns
- antique or brushed brass
These combinations help create warm, elegant, and timeless interiors.
