Hem weight or curtain weight

I've heard them called hem weights and curtain weights. I assume they were sewn into the cloth. I seem to only find them around old home sites.

Yep on old curtains or drapes there was a pocket seam along the bottom that they were sewed into.You will also find just square flat pieces that did the same thing.
