this?

I love the way it drapes and the colour.

Anyone any ideas what it might be?

Thank you.

No, I think it's just cotton. Too thick to be silk and not slinky enough.
The drape will have been carefully and artfully arranged for the photograph, I bet it doesn't look like that all the time!

I found this pic of a similar style but in silk - www.saffroniabaldwin.com/2012/08/12-ways-to-add-glamour-to-your-interior/silk-curtains/

No. Not silk. A heavy cotton. John Lewis have lots like this.

A bit against the grain, not silk but may be cotton sateen (hence the sheen) linen or linen union.
I think a linen content is making the drape.
We could all be wrong , though!

definitely not silk, I have silk and to be honest I wouldn't recommend it. Looks lovely but really fades.
