26 colourways of decorative blackout from Khaki to Hillstone, 120 in wide
Crescent is a decorative blackout from Alendel, listed in 26 colourways, in 100% recycled polyester, at 120 in wide, railroaded. The colours run Khaki, Iron, Hillstone, Gunmetal, Espresso, Eclipse, Driftwood, Cloud White and 18 more, across the beige, grey, brown, black, white and blue families. All 26 flagged in stock by Alendel. It sits in Alendel's Zenith Book.
At 120 in the cloth is turned sideways and the width becomes the height, so a window wall up to about 10 ft tall carries no seam at all; that is the wide-width advantage on floor-to-ceiling glass. Being polyester it holds a pleat, keeps its size through humidity and a wash or a dry clean, and takes the sun better than a natural fibre, which matters on unshaded glass here. It weighs 1.90 lb per yard by Alendel's listing, and a cloth of that weight is hung on a track or rod sized for it. Care is WA-P (washable or dry clean). It passes NFPA 701 and CAN/ULC S109, the drapery flame tests asked for on commercial and condo common-area work in the US and Canada; it also carries CAL 117, an upholstery flammability listing; and FMVSS 302, the automotive interior test. Every colourway is listed as Oeko-Tex. Country of origin, as Alendel lists it: India.
What Crescent does at the window, and what it does not
Best use
Crescent is a decorative blackout, a cloth that blocks light on its own, so it is the bedroom and media-room drapery: pinch pleat or ripplefold on a track, with wall returns and a centre overlap sewn in so the darkness is real.
Light and privacy
The cloth itself stops light, so a panel needs no separate blackout liner. How dark the room gets is decided by the construction: wall returns, a centre overlap and, on a Roman, a snug outside mount. Full privacy day and night.
Cloth and care
100% recycled polyester; 1.90 lb per yard; care WA-P (washable or dry clean); 24,000 rubs abrasion. Polyester keeps its size and its pleat in humid air and after cleaning, and holds its colour in the sun better than a natural fibre. Listed as Oeko-Tex.
Limitations
Railroaded wide-width goods are not cut into Roman shades; for a matching Roman we pick a 54 inch cloth from the same book. The weight needs a track or rod sized for it; a light decorative rod will bow.

Width, content, repeat, care code, fire listings and weight per yard are Alendel's own listing for each colourway, captured from its trade catalogue; the stock flag is Alendel's public availability filter on the day we read it and is confirmed against the order before anything is cut. We bring the Alendel books to the consultation.
Where Crescent works here
Crescent is the kind of cloth we use for a bedroom on the east glass in Miami Beach or a media room in Boca Raton: the drapery itself is the blackout, sewn with wall returns and a centre overlap on a track or a bent motorized track that closes around a corner. Cut and sewn in our Fort Lauderdale workroom, installed by our own team from Miami to Palm Beach.
For the same use, compare Crescent with Solstice (decorative blackout, 120 in railroaded, 24 colourways), Breathe (decorative blackout, 55 in, 28 colourways) and Silence (decorative blackout, 55 in, 25 colourways); the table on each page lists the width, content, care code, fire listings and weight side by side.
Crescent: frequently asked
How many colours does Alendel Crescent come in?
26 colourways by Alendel's listing, all 26 flagged in stock by Alendel. Every one is on this page with its swatch, colour code and FB item number, and we bring the shortlist to the consultation so the colour is judged in your own light.
Can Crescent be made into a Roman shade?
We do not cut railroaded wide-width goods into Roman shades; the weave runs the wrong way for the folds. For a matching Roman we pick a 54 inch cloth from the same Alendel book, and the panels stay in Crescent.
Does Crescent pass NFPA 701?
Yes by Alendel's listing: Crescent passes NFPA 701, CAN/ULC S109, CAL 117 and FMVSS 302. NFPA 701 is the flame test a condo association, a hotel or an office asks for on drapery; where a project needs the certificate we request it from Alendel before the cloth is ordered.
What does Crescent cost made up as draperies?
It is quoted from the yardage: the width and height of the window, the fullness, the repeat if there is one, the lining and the track or rod. The pricing page has real numbers for sheers, motorized tracks and blackout draperies, and a quote for Crescent follows from a measure. Ask for a price with the button above and we come back with a figure, not a range.
