In the world of drapery hardware with so many different terms for decorative items, one can become easily confused! Take for example drapery medallions and drapery rosettes, a term that is interchangeable. Generally a drapery rosette is formed in a floral design while a drapery or curtain medallion can be designed in a vast array of shapes and styles. Taken from the word “rose”, drapery rosettes tend to be smaller in size while drapery medallions range from extra-small to extra-large and everywhere in-between. At Metropolis Ironwe consider all these types of decorative hardware to be drapery medallions. Other common names for drapery medallions other than a drapery rosette are holdbacks, drapery hangers and swag holders. So, we’d like to know… what do you call them?
