HANGING FOR WINDOWS AND THE LIKE.

Application filed August 5, 1913.
T0 aZZ whom it may concern Be it known that I, EDGAR F. STINER, a citizen of the Unit-ed States, residing at New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hang ings for I'Vindows and the like, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to Window curtains and the like, and particularly to lace and similar loose-hanging curtains.
The invention consists in a novel form of curtain of this class whereby, among other advantages hereinafter set forth or apparent to those skilled in the art, one fabric piece is adapted to serve for giving a double curtain effect, that is, one effect when seen from one side and another when seen from the opposite side. In hangings for windows, for instance, it is now customary to produce the double curtain-effect by two hangings suspended from two poles, one such hanging being a single curtain extending undivided from side .to side of the window frame and the other two curtains draped back.
In the accompanying drawings, illustrative of the present invention, Figures 1 and 2 are elevations of two forms of the improved hanging as seen when veiling a window or the like; Figs. 3 and 4 are central vertical sectional views of the hangings shown in Figs. 1 and 2, respectively; and, Figs. 5 and 6 show the hangings of Figs. 1 and 2, respectively, extended.
According to this invention, in place of weaving or otherwise forming two distinct hangings for each window or the like, one piece a of fabric is woven or otherwise formed. The length of this piece is approximately double that which would be required for a single hanging. Such piece is further formed with a split Z) extending from one end thereof (Figs. 1, 3 and 5) or from each end thereof (Figs. 2, 4; and 6), toward the middle of the piece. The extent to which the split extends is limited. That is to say, intermediate the ends of the piece, 6., substantially centrally thereof, is a field or section a, of suitable dimension, as here inafter indicated, lengthwise of the piece, that is continuous or unbifurcated clear across the piece. In the present instance (either of the forms shown) the margins of this field or section which adjoin the ends of Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 24, 1914.
Serial No. 783,030.
the piece are the scallopings (Z representing a part of the lace or other design or ornamentation of the hanging. l/Vith a hanging thus formed it is thrown over a pole e or the like support, as shown in the first four figures of the drawing, and its ends treated in some way to give the effect of a double hanging. That is to say, if the hanging is of the form shown in Figs. 1, 3 and 5, the bifurcated end is allowed to hang as it will, either end in the case of a window, for instance, being outside as taste or style may dictate; if the hanging is of the form shown in Figs. 2, 4: and 6, one or both of the two bifurcated ends may be draped back. A hanging thus formed obviously considerably reduces the cost of manufacture. It also avoids the necessity for two poles and by requiring only one pole gives greater range to the decorator in arranging the hangings for a room to the best advantage and with a view to produce a graceful and artistic effect. It has the further important advantage that the one hanging may be suited to different windows or the like, although they may vary in depth. That is to say, the decorator has only to adjust the end of the hanging that is to hang straight or undraped so that it suits the depth of the particular window being treated and then take care of any disparity in shortage or superfiuity of length in the other end by draping its members or parts to suit the hanging to a window of any depth, within reasonable limits. In such adjustment the pole would cross the field c, or, otherwise stated, the fold 7 (Figs. 3 and i) incidental to suspending the hanging from the pole in the way stated would cross such field, more or less near one of the margins thereof aforesaid, as the case might be.
I have shown in the drawings a hanging made of lace or the like. But it is obvious that the material thereof and whether or not it possesses ornamentation are immaterial.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. A loose-hanging double curtain consisting of an intact elongated piece of suitable fabric having a transverse section thereof half-way between its ends and across the piece adapted to be folded over a curtain pole and having one of its end portions bifurcated longitudinally from the extremity thereof to said section, saidsection being ].0 furcated longitudinally from the extremity thereof to said section, said section being continuous from one lateral edge of the piece to the other.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence oftwo Witnesses.
