Cup Brackets v Metal Brackets on curtain poles

Many of our customers opt for matching cup brackets when purchasing some of the more bespoke curtain poles. 

It is personal choice but as a Designer I feel the metal bracket imparts a more traditional/classic feel to a pole.  If you have brass or chrome door handles, window hardware or a light fitting  - pick this up on your curtain pole brackets to create a link in the room.  It will look like more thought has gone into the scheme and will look more designed.  Metal brackets are more noticeable due to their high shine whereas painted brackets blend in more with the pole.

I also like architrave brackets which are painted to match but are more streamlined. Some of the Byron and Byron ranges and Alison Davies Design curtain poles give you a choice of bracket.
