Roman Shades

ROMAN SHADES

Roman shades are a type of window covering that consists of a fabric panel that can be raised or lowered to control light and privacy. When the shade is fully raised, it forms a smooth and even horizontal fold. When lowered, the fabric panel hangs flat and covers the window.

Roman shades are known for their clean and elegant appearance. They provide a softer and more traditional look compared to other types of window treatments. The fabric used in Roman shades can vary, ranging from light and sheer materials to heavier and more opaque fabrics.

There are different styles of Roman shades, including classic or flat-fold Roman shades, which create a uniform appearance when raised, and teardrop or hobbled Roman shades, which feature cascading folds when raised. They can be operated using cords or chains, or through cordless or motorized mechanisms for convenience and child safety.

Roman shades offer versatility in light control, as the fabric can be adjusted to allow varying degrees of light to filter into a room. They also provide privacy when fully lowered. With a wide range of fabric choices, patterns, and colors available, Roman shades can be customized to complement different interior styles and preferences. They are commonly used in residential settings but can also be found in commercial spaces.
