- the curtain material When draping a window or door curtain, the curtain material is folded into a beam-like bundle (zigzag fold or meander fold) and placed over two holding rods arranged at a horizontal distance above the window or door. Subsequently, the lower part of the curtain fabric is drawn downwards to form a segment-shaped folds in order to produce a draping bow between the two holding rods to keep it taut.
- a separate holding pin is provided on each holding rod, between which and the holding rod the curtain material should be able to be clamped.
- this simple clamping does not offer a secure hold.
- EP-B-265 759 attributed to the applicant, which is characterized by at least one, in particular two, approximately U-shaped ones arranged at a horizontal distance from one another Holder, over the or its upper leg in the assembled state and between its or its upper and lower legs a curtain fabric folded into a beam or board-like bundle can be placed or passed through such that it while maintaining a predetermined drapery is captured.

- the two tines of each holder are preferably resiliently bendable apart.
- the support element for the holder is usually L-shaped.
- the device according to claim 17 contributes to increasing the decorative effect.
- an alternative rosette can be made from curtain fabric in the area of the holder, in a very simple manner, as can be seen in claim 9, according to which the curtain fabric first meanders into a fabric beam or board is folded. Subsequently, the fabric bar is drawn forward on one side of the holder through a first, upwardly open C, U or tulip-like holder profile and is fed back through this profile, forming a fabric loop. The curtain fabric is then pulled forward through the next holder profile, which is open at the top, and is returned as just described. This process is repeated until all profiles of the holder are filled with curtain fabric in the same way. Then the fabric loops are fanned out upwards and downwards and pulled back over the legs delimiting the respectively assigned holder profiles, forming fabric puffs.
- the curtain fabric can also be drawn step by step through the first holder profile and pulled back over the legs that delimit this profile, in order then to proceed in the same way with the second and the following holder profiles.
